At New Age Motors, we not only provide a high-quality oil change service but also offer a complimentary 50-point peace of mind inspection to ensure that your vehicle is safe and operating at its best.

When you bring your car in for a lube, filter, and oil change, you’re not just getting the oil changed. You’re getting a thorough inspection from our trained technicians who will examine your vehicle for potential issues and ensure everything is running smoothly. If any parts need attention, we’ll notify you immediately and provide a transparent estimate for any necessary repairs.

Why Is an Oil Change Important?

Oil changes are often considered routine maintenance, but they play a vital role in the health of your vehicle. The engine oil in your car acts as a lubricant for the moving parts inside the engine, reducing friction, preventing wear, and keeping the engine running smoothly. Over time, oil becomes contaminated with dirt, debris, and other particles, reducing its effectiveness. When oil breaks down, it can no longer perform its crucial function of lubrication, which can lead to engine damage and costly repairs.

Here are some key reasons why an oil change is crucial for your vehicle’s health:

1. Engine Protection

Oil lubricates the engine’s moving parts, ensuring that they don’t grind against each other, which can cause wear and tear. When oil gets dirty or runs low, it loses its ability to protect these parts, which can lead to engine failure.

2. Improved Fuel Efficiency

Old oil can cause the engine to work harder than it needs to, leading to poor fuel efficiency. By changing the oil regularly, you’re helping your engine run smoothly, which can improve gas mileage and reduce the overall cost of operating your vehicle.

3. Prevents Overheating

Oil helps to regulate the temperature of the engine by absorbing heat and carrying it away from the engine components. Dirty oil or insufficient oil can cause your engine to overheat, which can result in severe engine damage.

4. Extends Engine Life

Regular oil changes help ensure that the engine stays in good condition. Changing the oil regularly prevents the buildup of sludge and contaminants that can damage the engine over time, extending the life of the vehicle.

What’s Included in Our Lube, Filter & Oil Change Service?

At New Age Motors, we go beyond simply draining the old oil and replacing it with fresh oil. We offer a comprehensive service designed to keep your vehicle in optimal condition, so you can drive with confidence. Here’s what’s included in our lube, filter, and oil change service:

1. Oil Change

We start by draining the old oil from your vehicle and replacing it with high-quality oil that’s best suited for your engine. Depending on your car’s requirements, we’ll use synthetic, semi-synthetic, or conventional oil to ensure optimal performance. Our technicians will check the oil filter and replace it if necessary, ensuring that your new oil remains clean and effective.

2. 50-Point Inspection

While the oil is draining, our technician will perform a complimentary 50-point inspection. This comprehensive check covers key areas of your vehicle, including:

• Brakes: Inspecting the brake pads, rotors, and fluid levels to ensure that your brakes are working properly.
• Tires: Checking tire pressure, tread depth, and overall condition to make sure your tires are safe and performing well.
• Battery: Testing the battery to ensure that it’s charged and in good condition.
• Fluid Levels: Checking the levels of other essential fluids, such as coolant, brake fluid, transmission fluid, and power steering fluid.
• Belts and Hoses: Inspecting the belts and hoses for wear or cracks that could lead to potential breakdowns.
• Lights: Ensuring all headlights, tail lights, and turn signals are working properly.
• Suspension System: Checking the condition of the shocks and struts to ensure your vehicle rides smoothly.

At the end of the inspection, you’ll receive a full report, detailing the condition of your vehicle. If anything requires attention, we’ll let you know and provide a clear estimate for any necessary repairs.

3. Tire Rotation

While it’s not always included in an oil change, we recommend having your tires rotated regularly to ensure even wear. If you choose to have this service done while getting your oil change, our technicians will rotate the tires and check their overall condition.

4. Air Filter Replacement

Along with the oil change, we check the air filter and replace it if necessary. A clean air filter ensures that your engine gets the proper airflow, improving performance and fuel efficiency.

How Often Should You Get an Oil Change?

The frequency of oil changes can depend on several factors, such as the type of vehicle you own, the type of oil you use, and your driving habits. As a general guideline:

• Conventional Oil: Every 3,000 to 5,000 miles (4,800 to 8,000 km).
• Synthetic Oil: Every 7,500 to 10,000 miles (12,000 to 16,000 km).
• Severe Driving Conditions: If you drive frequently in stop-and-go traffic, tow heavy loads, or drive in extreme weather conditions, you may need to change your oil more frequently.

Always refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual for specific recommendations, as some modern vehicles can go longer between oil changes. However, even if you’re using synthetic oil, we recommend regular inspections to keep your vehicle running smoothly.
