The Importance of Regular Oil Changes in Hybrid Vehicles
Staying on top of the recommended regular schedule for your hybrid oil change is one of the easiest and least expensive ways to keep your engine running at peak performance. Regular oil changes are also critical in extending the life of your hybrid vehicle.
The engine oil works to keep the engine clean from debris and lubricates the moving parts of the engine. No matter if the engine is in a hybrid vehicle or traditional vehicle. With dirty or low oil, the oil’s ability to clean and protect your engine’s components is severely diminished. This can cause damage to your engine and lead to much bigger and more costly repairs.
Following the manufacturer-recommended mileage interval for oil changes in your hybrid vehicle will help avoid critical engine issues and keep your vehicle running longer.
Every vehicle is different, but most hybrid vehicles do not require an oil change every 3,000 like is often recommended for many gas-powered vehicles. They can often go slightly longer between oil changes. Your vehicle’s owner’s manual will provide more information on exactly how often your vehicle should have an oil change done. Some hybrids use synthetic motor oil which extends the oil change interval to 5,000 to 7,000 kilometers.

Hybrid Battery Testing and Conditioning
Hybrid Battery Servicing & Replacement
Overall, hybrid vehicles have proven to be very reliable and efficient. But, as with any vehicle, components in the hybrid vehicle can age with use. One of the most common issues that can eventually come up is with the hybrid battery. Over time, worn batteries can cause decreased gas mileage and reduction in performance. But that doesn’t automatically mean you have to replace the hybrid battery, which can be costly. The batteries in modern hybrid vehicles are designed to last at least 100,000 miles when properly maintained.
The expert technicians at Al-Rafay Automotive can accurately diagnose the condition of your battery and perform any servicing, conditioning, or replacement that may be needed.
The first thing that will happen is a diagnostic test of your hybrid battery to determine the current state of health. The battery will then be removed and conditioned as needed. This is a process of switching between fully discharging the battery and fully charging the battery to improve the overall energy output and cell capacity.
During this process, any component that is failing or faulty cells will be identified and can be replaced as needed. Other supportive components of the battery will also be checked for proper operation. Once the conditioning and any component replacement is complete, the battery is then placed back in your vehicle. Your hybrid battery system as a whole will also be checked to ensure it is functioning in optimal condition.
If your battery is beyond conditioning or repair, our hybrid technicians can replace it with a new battery as well as any related components as necessary.

Honda Accord Hybrid
Honda Civic Hybrid

Hybrid Vehicle Brake System Inspection & Repair
Another great feature of most hybrid vehicles is the capacity for regenerative braking. This essentially means that the vehicle’s engine is put into reverse, assisting the brake system to effectively stop the vehicle while also generating electricity to charge the battery. The added bonus of this is the extended life of your braking components compared to traditional vehicles.
During the preventative maintenance of your hybrid vehicle, we will check the current condition of your brake system. Our technicians will help you maintain and extend the life of your brake pads and other components so you get the longest life possible out of them. We can then replace braking components when the time comes and help keep you on the road safely.
