The average vehicle is comprised of over 30,000 different parts, counting every part down to the bolts and screws. Thousands of those parts are in constant motion and hundreds are found in the engine. Without the proper lubrication of those parts, wear and tear will dramatically degrade the integrity your engine and its performance. The cost of regular oil changes far outweigh the cost of internal engine components.

Each vehicle has a specific weight and grade of engine oil required, and it is highly recommended to have the oil level correctly maintained to ensure proper lubrication. In addition to the oil itself, oil filters are equally as important to ensure that any particulate matter and sludge are properly filtered from the lubrication system. This will make certain that your oil will perform its best until the next oil service is due.

In general, routine maintenance and checks will promote your vehicle’s longevity and aid in preventing costly repairs. One of the most important things you can do for your vehicle is keep your engine in top condition by changing oil every 4000 to 5000 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first.

Our ASE certified technicians know all of the requirements for your specific vehicle and are specially trained to check the integrity of your vehicle’s engine lubrication system.

Most vehicles need oil changes every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, but it depends on the vehicle and driving habits. For vehicles driven in New York City or any of the 5 boroughs we recommend changing your oil at least once every 6 months. We can check your records and recommend a schedule.

The correct oil depends on your vehicle’s specifications. We use what’s best for your engine — whether that’s synthetic, high-mileage, or manufacturer-specific blends.

It could be. If it’s been too long, your engine may be at risk of sludge buildup or wear. We’ll inspect your oil and advise from there but for greater peace of mind just have an oil service performed.

Yes, it can be. Engine oil plays a critical role in keeping your engine lubricated, clean, and running smoothly. Over time, old or degraded oil can lose its effectiveness, potentially leading to increased wear, carbon buildup, sludge deposits, and even long-term engine damage—especially if it hasn’t been changed in a while.
But don’t worry—there’s a remedy.

At our shop, we can perform an Oil System Flush, a service that introduces powerful detergents into the engine. These detergents help break down carbon and sludge deposits that may have formed due to infrequent oil changes. After cycling the cleaning agents through the system, we follow it with a fresh oil and filter change to ensure your engine is clean, protected, and performing at its best.
If you’re unsure when your last oil change was, this is a great way to reset and protect your engine moving forward.

“Great service and very fair. I brought car in for a grating noise over one of the wheels and they could have literally told me and charged me anything. Instead they just bent something slightly back into place and no charge. No issues since. Brought back for oil change and to replace battery at very reasonable rates. Happy to recommend.”
