What Happens When You Run Out If Engine Oil

Running out of engine oil can lead to severe damage to your car’s engine. Engine oil is crucial for lubricating the moving parts of the engine, reducing friction, and dissipating heat. Without oil, these parts rub together, causing friction and heat buildup that can warp components, seize the engine, or even lead to total engine failure. The lack of lubrication also accelerates wear on critical parts like pistons, bearings, and crankshafts. This can result in costly repairs or the need for a complete engine replacement. Additionally, low oil levels can cause the engine to overheat, potentially damaging gaskets and seals. Regularly checking and maintaining proper oil levels is essential for the longevity and performance of your vehicle’s engine.
