Oil Change in Moore SC

Regular oil changes are the most basic routine maintenance you can perform to keep your car running smoothly.



Which Oil Type Do You Need?

It really depends on your vehicle, but here are the basics.

Conventional oil provides basic lubrication and protection at an affordable price.

Synthetic oil offers superior performance in extreme temperatures and lasts longer than conventional oil. It provides better protection against engine wear and helps improve fuel efficiency. Many newer vehicles specifically require synthetic oil.

Synthetic blend oil combines conventional and synthetic oils to offer a middle-ground option. It provides better protection than conventional oil at a lower price than full synthetic.

Lakeview Automotive always uses the manufacturer-recommended oil type for your specific vehicle.

6,000 miles interval or every 6-months regular engine oil service. That way, it’s at the same time as your tire rotation and balancing.
