Oil Change & Lubrication Services In Atascadero
Regular oil changes and chassis lubrication are the simplest ways to extend your engine and suspension life. If you notice any warning signs or have reached your mileage interval, bring your vehicle in before minor neglect becomes major damage.
Comprehensive Vehicle Inspection
Before we drain the first drop of oil, we perform a multi-point inspection of your vehicle. We check fluid levels, inspect belts and hoses, examine your air filter, and look for potential issues so you leave knowing your vehicle's overall condition.
High Mileage Oil Change
Vehicles with over 75,000 miles benefit from specially formulated high-mileage oils. These oils contain seal conditioners and additives that help reduce oil consumption, minimize leaks, and protect aging engine components.
Conventional Oil Change
For vehicles that don't require synthetic oil, we offer conventional oil changes using quality motor oil that meets manufacturer specifications. We replace your oil filter and top off other fluids as needed.
Chassis and Suspension Lubrication
Grease fittings on ball joints, tie rod ends, U-joints, and other suspension components need regular lubrication to prevent wear and noise. We grease all accessible fittings to keep your steering and suspension operating smoothly and quietly.
Synthetic and Synthetic Blend Oil Change
Modern engines often require full synthetic or synthetic blend oils for optimal protection. We use premium synthetic oils that provide superior engine protection, better performance in extreme temperatures, and extended change intervals.
Differential and Transfer Case Service
For trucks, SUVs, and all-wheel drive vehicles, we service differentials and transfer cases with the proper gear oil. This often-overlooked maintenance protects expensive drivetrain components from premature wear.
