Oil Change at our Haines City shop

Your owner's manual lists the viscosity and the oil standard your engine requires, and it is usually printed on the oil cap too. Tell us your year, make, and engine and we will confirm it before anything goes in. Getting this right matters more on modern engines than it did on older ones.

Sometimes, and it depends on how you drive more than where you live. Heat, humidity, idling in traffic, and short trips are what manufacturers call severe service, and most manuals list a shorter interval for it. If that sounds like your week, we will point you to that column.

On most vehicles it is a reasonable guide, since it factors in engine temperature, trip length, and load rather than just counting miles. We still check the oil's actual condition and level when the car is in. If the monitor and the manual disagree, we will walk you through why.

No. Federal law protects your right to have routine maintenance done where you choose, as long as it meets the manufacturer's specification and gets documented. We record the oil and filter that went in and the date and mileage, so you have the paperwork if it ever comes up.

Most people do. Give the shop closest to you a call before you head over and we will tell you honestly what the day looks like, so you are not sitting longer than you planned.
