Motor Oil Matters: Jiffy Lube $35 Giftcard Giveaway

in Uncategorized

Another great way to save money is to take care of our vehicles. Thanks to MyBlogSpark for this amazing giveaway I have learned SO much about how to prolong my engine’s life and improve the overall efficiency.

One lucky reader will win a $35 gift card which will cover most of the cost, if not all, of a conventional oil change at most Jiffy Lube locations.

In the United States the average age of cars and light trucks on the roads today has reached a record high of 9.4 years, making it more important than ever for consumers to take proper care of their vehicles. With the new MotorOilMatters.org web site www.MotorOilMatters.org (created by industry-leading brands Pennzoil, Quaker State and Shell Rotella); you can easily locate key information that will help prolong your engine´s life and improve overall efficiency, as well as help answer any questions you may have about motor oil. In addition, the site offers a fun, educational game for you to play called “M.O.M. Knows Best” where you can put your motor mind to the test with an interactive quiz.

Did you know?

  • According to a study by the Automotive Aftermarket Industry Association, nearly 9 out of 10 female motorists are involved in their household’s vehicle maintenance and repair

  • According to a national survey that polled 522 women, 46 percent incorrectly assumed simply switching from conventional engine oil to synthetic oil enables the number of miles between oil changes to be safely extended*
  • Using a quality motor oil in the right grade can help maximize fuel economy, and help save money by preventing costly engine damage
  • Off-brand, no-name or discount oils that do not meet industry standards or the vehicle manufacturer´s requirements could cost consumers in the long run by potentially damaging the vehicle´s engine or possibly voiding the manufacturer´s warrant* Jiffy Lube Survey Conducted by Opinion Research Corporation, 2006

Additionally, to make a trip to get your oil changed even more rewarding, Pennzoil® has partnered with the VH1 Save The Music Foundation through its “Play The Music. Save The Music” Campaign, and now through December 6, 2009 anyone can receive up to 46 FREE music downloads and up to a $15 service certificate back by mail, when they get their oil changed at Jiffy Lube and other Pennzoil® participating installers. See www.pennzoil.com for details and to find your local participating installer locations.

A HUGE thanks to Shell Lubricants and MotorOilMatters.org for providing us with the gift card and information through MyBlogSpark!

I learned that changing your oil will remove harmful contaminants and dirt that have been collected in the oil.

What I learned was I am a severe driver lol. Because severe is considered stop-and-go driving, frequent high-speed driving and short trips… that's me!

From the website I learned properly functioning motor oils lubricate, clean, cool, seal and perform other functions in an engine.

I learned that Shell is doing good! That's the gas we use, and they're trying to reduce the poor quality of oils used. Go Shell!

I learned that the correct oil change interval is the one recommended by the engine manufacturer for your individual driving conditions. I usually go every 3,000 when my manual says it can go up to 5,000. Interesting.
