Frequently Asked Questions
Do you provide additional services?
Yes, we obviously do oil changes. but we also can change windshield wipers, engine air filter & cabin air filters. You can select these additional services when you schedule an appointment.
Why do you only use synthetic oil?
Believe it or not, the main reason you should change your vehicle’s motor oil has less to do with it being “dirty” and more to do with thermal breakdown. This means the heat produced from your engine, slowly degrades you’re vehicles oil. Synthetic motor oil has proven to be the premium option over conventional motor oil because of its superior resistance to thermal breakdown.
Why do you recommend every 6 months vs. every 3 or 5?
There’s an ongoing battle between vehicle manufacturers and mechanics. Manufacturers want to sell vehicles with low maintenance requirements, therefore they’ll recommend oil changes every 5-7 months. Mechanics want you to come back as often as possible so they typically recommend every 3-5. The truth is, we’ll see you as often as you’d like but research has shown that with today’s high tech, synthetic motor oils, every 6 months is the standard interval.
What about RVs and other recreational vehicles?
Typically, if it has an internal combustion engine that holds oil, we can change it. Motor Homes, Boats, Side-by-sides, Jet-Skis.
Just make sure it’s on relatively level ground, or has the ability to be leveled.
