Car Engine Oil Change
Protect Your Engine with Regular Oil Changes
A routine car engine oil change is one of the most important maintenance services for protecting your engine. Fresh engine oil reduces friction, lubricates moving components, controls engine temperature, and removes contaminants that accumulate during normal driving.
During every engine oil service, our technicians:
- Drain the old engine oil
- Replace the oil filter
- Refill with the correct engine oil
- Inspect fluid levels
- Check for oil leaks
- Perform a basic vehicle inspection
Following your recommended oil change interval helps extend engine life and provides an opportunity to detect early signs of engine issues such as oil leaks or head gasket failure before they require major engine repairs.
Oil Change Process
Our servicing process is designed to ensure every oil change is completed accurately and professionally.
Step 1 – Vehicle Inspection
We perform a basic inspection to assess the overall condition of your vehicle before servicing begins.
Step 2 – Drain Old Engine Oil
The used engine oil is safely drained to remove contaminants and degraded lubricant.
Step 3 – Replace the Oil Filter
A new oil filter is installed to ensure clean oil circulates throughout the engine.
Step 4 – Refill with Quality Engine Oil
We refill your engine using the appropriate engine oil based on your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations.
Step 5 – Final Inspection
We check fluid levels, inspect for leaks, and verify the engine is operating correctly before returning your vehicle.
Recommended Car Servicing Intervals
When Should You Service Your Vehicle?
Following the correct servicing interval helps maintain your vehicle's reliability, fuel efficiency, and long-term performance. While every manufacturer has its own recommendations, the ideal service schedule also depends on your driving habits, mileage, and road conditions.
| Service Type | Recommended Interval |
|---|---|
| Engine Oil Change | Every 8,000–10,000 km or as recommended by the manufacturer |
| Minor Car Servicing | Every 10,000 km or 6 months |
| Major Car Servicing | Every 40,000–60,000 km, or according to the maintenance schedule |
| Brake Inspection | Every servicing appointment |
| Battery Inspection | Every servicing appointment |
| Tyre Inspection | Every servicing appointment |
| Cooling System Inspection | At major servicing or when recommended |
Regular servicing helps identify developing issues early, reducing the likelihood of unexpected breakdowns and expensive repairs.
