As your engine has lots of moving parts which cause lots of friction, the oil is there to reduce friction and prevent ceasing, one reason for an oil change is when the moving parts have been wearing against each other you shall get fine parts of metal, a bit like iron fillings come off the parts. a large amount of dirt and metal within your oil will cause damage to the moving parts. also the oil, over time will loose some properties of the oil it will become thick therefor reducing efficiency of your engine.
