What Happens During Each Service
Full-Service Oil Change
What we do:
- Drain old oil and replace with premium quality oil (up to 5 quarts)
- Install new oil filter
- Lubricate chassis components
- Check and adjust tire pressure
- Inspect belts and hoses
- Test battery performance
- Top off windshield washer fluid
- Reset maintenance reminder light
- Complete visual safety inspection
Why It Matters:
Regular oil changes are the single most important thing you can do to extend your engine’s life. Fresh oil lubricates moving parts, reduces friction, and prevents costly engine damage.
Tire Rotation
What We Do:
- Remove all four tires
- Rotate to appropriate positions based on your vehicle’s drive type
- Inspect tread depth and wear patterns
- Check for damage, punctures, or irregular wear
- Re-torque lug nuts to manufacturer specifications
- Verify proper tire pressure
Why It Matters:
Rotating your tires every 5,000-7,000 miles promotes even tread wear, extends tire life by up to 20%, and ensures optimal traction and handling in all conditions.
Brake Inspection
What We Do:
- Measure brake pad and shoe thickness
- Inspect rotors and drums for wear or damage
- Check brake fluid level and condition
- Test brake line integrity
- Examine calipers and wheel cylinders
- Assess parking brake function

Why It Matters:
Your brakes are your vehicle’s most critical safety system. Regular inspections catch wear before it becomes dangerous and prevent expensive emergency repairs.
Fluid Check & Top-Off
What We Do:
- Check engine coolant level and condition
- Inspect transmission fluid
- Test brake fluid
- Verify power steering fluid
- Check differential fluid (if applicable)
- Top off all fluids as needed
- Alert you to any fluid leaks or contamination
Why It Matters:
Low or contaminated fluids can cause serious damage to expensive components. Regular monitoring prevents breakdowns and extends the life of critical systems.
Multi-Point Inspection
What We Do:
- Inspect all lights (headlights, taillights, brake lights, turn signals)
- Test wiper blade condition
- Check air filter
- Examine battery terminals and cables
- Inspect suspension components

Why It Matters:
This thorough inspection catches small problems before they become expensive repairs. You’ll know exactly what your vehicle needs and when it needs it.
