Oil change in Sudbury

Oil change service in Greater Sudbury

An oil change is the cheapest thing you can do for your engine — and the best chance to catch a problem while it is still small. Call (705) 560-6860 and we will get you booked in.

What's included

We are a full service automotive repair shop, not a drive-through lube bay. That means the person changing your oil is the same kind of technician who diagnoses and repairs vehicles all day — so you get more than a sticker on the windshield.

Oil and filter replaced

Conventional, synthetic blend or full synthetic — whatever your engine's manufacturer schedule calls for, with a new filter every time.

Fluids and tires checked

Coolant, brake fluid, washer fluid and tire pressures looked at while the vehicle is with us, and topped up where needed.

An honest look underneath

Brakes, belts, hoses and leaks get a visual once-over. If something needs attention we show you; if it can wait, we say so.

How often should you change your oil?

There is no single number that fits every vehicle. Modern engines on full synthetic often go far longer than the old 5,000 km rule of thumb, while short winter trips around Sudbury, idling, towing and dusty back roads all shorten the interval. The honest answer is to follow your manufacturer's schedule for the way you actually drive — and to check the oil level between services.

Not sure where your vehicle sits? Tell us the year, model and roughly how you drive it and we will tell you what the schedule says. We would rather you came in at the right interval than paid for services you do not need.

More on oil change intervals

Northern Ontario driving is hard on oil

Cold starts thicken oil and delay lubrication, and a Sudbury winter is full of them. Short trips never get the engine fully warm, so moisture and fuel dilute the oil instead of burning off. If most of your driving is a few kilometres at a time in the cold, clean oil matters more for your engine than it would for a highway commuter.

Due for an oil change?

Fair pricing, straight answers and a proper look at the rest of the vehicle while it is on the hoist.
