Frequently asked questions

If it's a car, we'll fix it. If it's a question, we'll answer it.

Can I drive my car if the "oil change" light is on?

The "oil change" light indicates that it's time for an oil change based on the vehicle's monitoring system. It's essential not to ignore this warning, as running the engine with low or degraded oil can cause significant damage. Schedule an oil change as soon as possible when the light comes on. As part of our oil change service, we can reset the "oil change" light on your vehicle's dashboard to ensure that the system accurately tracks the next oil change interval.

Why is my engine oil milky brown?

If you have checked your oil and it is a milky brown color, this can be an indication of having coolant in the oil. Unfortunately, this is usually caused by a blown head gasket and is a serious problem that needs to be inspected by a technician as soon as possible.

When should I get my oil changed?

Most vehicles are going to require that you change your engine oil every 3,000-5,000 miles. Simply ask our service advisors for more details on the best oil change type and schedule for your vehicle.

Should I consider using synthetic motor oil in my vehicle?

Synthetic motor oils can be a good choice for high output, turbocharged or supercharged engines. It also can be beneficial to vehicles that operate in very cold or hot climates or towing. Although more expensive than blends and standard oils, synthetic can improve fuel economy and provide longer mileage intervals between changes.
