Oil Change in Detroit
Drive in, drop off, or wait in the lobby. Most oil changes are done in about 30 minutes with a free multi-point inspection you can read yourself.
What's included
Drain and refill with the grade your manufacturer specifies. New OEM-equivalent oil filter. Check and top off coolant, washer fluid, power steering, and brake fluid.
Free multi-point inspection: tires, brakes, belts, hoses, battery, lights, wipers, and fluids. You get a written report. Nothing happens beyond the oil change without your OK.
Reset the oil-life monitor and log the service so we know when you're due next.
Which oil you need
Most newer vehicles call for full synthetic at the weight the manufacturer specifies. We carry full synthetic, synthetic blend, and conventional. We'll match what's in your owner's manual, not upsell you past it.
High-mileage vehicles sometimes benefit from a high-mileage formula with added seal conditioners. Ask us and we'll tell you if it's worth it for your car.
How often to come in
Full synthetic: every 5,000 to 7,500 miles for most cars. Synthetic blend: every 5,000 miles. Conventional: every 3,000 to 5,000 miles.
Follow your owner's manual if it differs. The oil-life monitor is a good reminder but do not go past it on the low end.
Watch for these
