Best Answer

Make sure the oil-filler cap is properly installed. Some engines rely on engine crankcase perssure in order to run properly. If the cap is loose or improperly installes, this pressure may drop or not allow for the proper venting of crankcase pressures. You may also have PCV valve issues as well. Start with the filler cap and go from there.

Getting an Oil Change?

When your car needs an oil change, there are a number of things you need to take into consideration. While every car needs an oil change after a certain amount of miles or months, exactly how you can accomplish that oil change is dictated by the type of car you have. For example, if you have a used car that is not under warranty, you can change the oil yourself or have it changed by anyone that you want. However, if you have a new car that is under warranty, you may find that you aren't allowed to do that. Some car warranties may require you to take your car into a certified oil change center to change the old oil without voiding your warranty.
