How Long Does It Take to Change Your Vehicle’s Oil?

Oil change durations are different for every vehicle, but typically they are quick and seamless. If you choose to do it yourself, you’re looking at a 45-minute to an hour time range, depending on your skills and savviness under the hood.

If you want to save even more time, bring your vehicle to our dealership’s state-of-the-art service center. Our technicians can perform oil changes in as little as 20 to 30 minutes. Of course, this is dependent on a few things. This includes how many appointments are made for that day and the state of your vehicle.

For example, if you keep up to date on all your auto maintenance, you’ll be in and out before you know it! Additionally, our technicians will also inspect other areas of your model to ensure it’s in perfect working order.

How to Change Oil

Whether you are gearing to perform an oil change yourself or leave the work to our professionals, the process is pretty much the same. However, thanks to our facility’s industry-leading tools, equipment, and technologies as well as highly-trained technicians, chances are it’ll be quicker at our service center.

Let’s take a look at what happens when you schedule an oil change at our service center:

  1. Your vehicle will be inspected by one of our technicians before they raise the model and get to work. If anything else needs tending to, they’ll speak to you about it first.
  2. The technician will then remove the oil drain plug and drain your vehicle’s old oil.
  3. Next, they will replace the oil filter and re-install the oil drain plug.
  4. New oil is then placed into your vehicle.
  5. Finally, the technician will do one last inspection to make sure there is enough fresh oil and there are no leaks present.

That’s it! In just a short amount of time, you’ll be behind the wheel of your vehicle that’s refreshed with brand-new oil.
