The right oil for your engine, a new filter, and a full inspection with photos — done the same day while you’re at work. No upsell script, just a straight answer on anything else we see.
An oil change is the most important routine maintenance your engine gets — and the best chance to catch small problems before they turn expensive. At SP Automotive the owner does the work: we use the oil grade and specification your manufacturer calls for, install a quality filter, and look the whole vehicle over while it’s on the lift.
You get a text with photos of anything that needs attention and the price, plus an honest “this is fine” list. Nothing extra gets done unless you approve it. We service daily drivers, light trucks, fleet vans, diesels and classic cars that need high-zinc oil for flat-tappet camshafts.
Full synthetic, synthetic blend, high-mileage or conventional — matched to your manufacturer’s specification, not whatever is on sale.
A new oil filter every time, and the drain plug gasket replaced where the manufacturer calls for it.
Coolant, brake, power steering, transmission and washer fluid checked and topped off.
Brakes, tires, belts, hoses, filters, lights and leaks looked over — with photos texted to you.
Diesel pickups and work vans serviced on a schedule that keeps your fleet on the road, with one invoice a month.
High-zinc oil for flat-tappet engines and the care older seals and gaskets need.

Follow your owner’s manual or oil-life monitor. Most modern cars on synthetic oil run 5,000 to 10,000 miles between changes; older engines, towing, short trips and dusty conditions call for shorter intervals.
The service itself takes under an hour. Most customers drop off in the morning and pick up after work, and oil and maintenance work is guaranteed same day.
Yes. We service gasoline and diesel engines with full synthetic, synthetic blend, high-mileage or conventional oil, matched to your manufacturer’s specification.
No. We inspect the vehicle and text you photos of anything we find, with the price. If something can wait, we’ll tell you, and nothing gets done unless you approve it.
