Hola a todos, tengo un Toyota Corolla 2020 y me di cuenta que llevo 3 años sin cambiar el aceite. ¿Creen que esto pudo haber dañado el motor? He notado que el auto suena un poco raro últimamente. ¿Qué problemas específicos podría enfrentar? ¡Gracias!

    It has been a long time since the last oil change, and this could definitely have a negative effect on the engine. Even with low mileage, oil loses its properties over time.
    What specific problems you may encounter:
    - Insufficient lubrication leads to friction and accelerated wear of parts.
    - Old oil can form deposits and sludge, clogging oil channels and impairing cooling.
    - In the long term, this can lead to serious engine damage.
    The strange noise you are hearing may be one of the signs of these problems.
    I recommend:
    - Replace the oil and oil filter immediately.
    - Contact a service centre for engine diagnostics to assess the possible damage.
    Three years without an oil change is a very long time and could have damaged the engine. Replace the oil immediately and have the engine diagnosed.
