Why it matters
Why regular oil changes matter
Oil keeps your engine's moving parts from wearing against each other and carries heat away. Over time it breaks down and collects dirt, so it protects less. Changing it on schedule is one of the cheapest ways to avoid expensive engine repairs.
Your schedule
How often should you change your oil?
Follow the schedule in your owner's manual. Many newer cars use synthetic oil and go further between changes than older cars did, and many show an oil-life reminder on the dash.
Your driving matters too. Lots of short trips, stop-and-go traffic, towing and cold winters are harder on oil than steady highway driving. If you're not sure what your car needs, we'll check the manufacturer's schedule for you.
Every visit

Call (201) 664-6556How often should I get an oil change?
Follow your owner's manual or your car's oil-life reminder. Newer cars on synthetic oil often go further between changes than older cars, while short trips, heavy traffic and towing call for changes sooner.
Do I need synthetic oil?
Use the oil type and grade your owner's manual calls for. Many newer engines require synthetic; others can use conventional or a blend. We'll check what your car needs.
Can you mount tires I bought online?
Yes. We don't sell tires, but we mount tires you bought elsewhere. Call ahead so we can schedule the time.
Do you rotate tires?
Yes. Tire rotation is part of our routine maintenance and helps your tires wear evenly and last longer.
