Prompt Oil Changes For New Hampshire

Our goal is to provide a comprehensive oil change to ensure your vehicle runs efficiently. It is recommended to get an oil change every 3 months or 3,000 miles. Changing your oil replaces the oil used to lubricate your engine, with new clean oil. This process keeps your engine well lubricated to reduce friction and it keeps your vehicle in good condition.

Keep an eye out for the following signs that it's time for an oil change:

• Excess Vehicle Exhaust
• Increased Engine Noise
• A Ticking Noise When Starting
• Shaking While Idling
• Irregular Oil Texture
• Low or Falling Oil Level
• More Mileage Than Expected
• Persistent Check Engine Light

Oil changes are important to ensure your vehicle's moving parts are well lubricated to prevent overheating. Getting an oil change every 3,000 miles will help improve the longevity of your vehicle. If you're not sure when your last oil change was, reach out to our professionals and we will take a look. Regular oil changes directly contribute to the lifespan of your vehicle; it's important to keep your vehicle's services up-to-date.

Getting Ready for Your New Hampshire Vehicle Inspection

If your vehicle is due for its state inspection, you'll need to make sure that your vehicle is ready. New Hampshire guidelines state that your vehicle's body and emission system need to pass inspection to be fit to drive. We will inspect the following: 

• Registration plates, certificate, and vehicle ID number
• Odometer and speedometer
