Think of your van’s engine like your own tired legs after a day of deliveries. Fresh oil is like a good stretch and a hot cup of coffee—it keeps everything running smooth.
When the light comes on, your Transit is basically saying, "Hey, my joints are getting a little creaky. Can you grab me some fresh stuff?" It’s a favor to yourself, not a chore. Ignoring it is like wearing wet socks all day—technically you can do it, but why would you want to?
I learned this the hard way. My buddy Frank ignored his light for two months. His van started making a noise like a blender full of rocks. That repair bill bought him a very expensive dinner of regret.
