What's Included

Our oil service includes draining old oil, replacing the oil filter with a quality OEM-equivalent filter, refilling with the correct specification oil for your vehicle, and checking all fluid levels. We also perform a complimentary multi-point inspection of brakes, tires, lights, and belts.

After service, we reset your oil service indicator if equipped, provide you with service records for your vehicle history, and place a reminder sticker showing your next service date and odometer reading.

Oil Selection

We use the oil specification recommended by your vehicle manufacturer. Modern engines typically require fully synthetic oils with specific certifications (ACEA, API standards). We stock major brands and can source specific requirements.

Your vehicle's manual specifies the correct viscosity (e.g., 5W-30) and certification standards. Using the wrong oil can reduce fuel efficiency, increase engine wear, and potentially void warranties. We ensure compliance with manufacturer specifications.

Service Intervals

Modern vehicles with synthetic oil typically require service every 15,000-30,000 km or 12-24 months, whichever comes first. Older vehicles or those using mineral oil may need more frequent changes every 10,000-15,000 km.

Service intervals depend on your driving conditions. City driving, short trips, cold weather, and towing reduce intervals. We follow manufacturer recommendations and can advise based on your specific driving patterns. See our warranty policy for service interval importance.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How often should I change my oil?
Follow your vehicle manufacturer's recommended interval, typically every 15,000-30,000 km or 12-24 months for synthetic oil. Your vehicle's manual and service indicator provide specific guidance. Severe driving conditions may require shorter intervals.
2. What oil does my car need?
Your vehicle requires a specific oil viscosity (e.g., 5W-30) and certification level specified in your owner's manual. We verify the correct specification using manufacturer data and your VIN. Using incorrect oil can damage your engine and void warranties.
3. Can I extend my oil change interval?
No. Extending intervals beyond manufacturer recommendations increases engine wear, reduces fuel efficiency, and can void your warranty. Modern oils last longer than older formulations, but manufacturer intervals account for real-world conditions.
4. Do you use genuine manufacturer oil filters?
We use genuine OEM filters or OEM-equivalent filters that meet or exceed manufacturer specifications. See our parts policy for details on our quality standards.
5. Will using synthetic oil void my warranty?
No, synthetic oil that meets manufacturer specifications is warranty-safe. In fact, many modern vehicles require synthetic oil to maintain warranty coverage.
6. Can you service my vehicle if it's under warranty?
Yes. Independent service does not void manufacturer warranties if we use correct specifications and follow service schedules. We provide documentation for your warranty records. See our warranty policy.
7. What happens if I miss an oil change?
Missing one service interval typically won't cause immediate damage, but it increases engine wear and could void warranty coverage for engine repairs. Schedule service as soon as possible if you've exceeded your interval.
8. Do you dispose of old oil properly?
Yes, we collect and dispose of used oil and filters according to EU environmental regulations through licensed waste management partners.
9. Can I bring my own oil?
See our parts policy for customer-supplied parts. Generally, we recommend using our stocked oils to ensure correct specifications and warranty coverage.
10. How long does an oil change take?
Typical oil changes take 45-60 minutes including our complimentary multi-point inspection. We can often complete service while you wait in our comfortable waiting area.
