The Details Behind Our Oil Change Inspection Checklist

Every oil change presents an important opportunity to keep your vehicle running safely and reliably. When you visit Auto Centric for an oil change, we don’t just drain old oil and replace it with fresh fluid. We conduct a comprehensive oil change inspection that examines crucial systems and components to catch potential issues before they become expensive problems. That’s what you’re looking for from an auto repair shop.


Our technicians carefully work through a detailed checklist during every oil change, giving you peace of mind that your vehicle is receiving thorough attention. This routine inspection is included with your oil change service at no additional cost.


For drivers seeking even more comprehensive vehicle care, we also offer a separate detailed vehicle inspection and recommend scheduling our thorough annual inspection. These more extensive services provide an in-depth analysis of your vehicle’s overall health and maintenance needs.
