How Long Will an Oil Change Take If I Do It Myself?

Naturally, a do-it-yourself oil change takes longer. You will at least need to schedule one hour to dedicate to your DIY oil change. There are a few things you need to correctly do an oil change; they are:

• New Oil (Check your owner’s manual for the oil your vehicle needs.)
• New Filter
• Filler Gasket
• Rubber Mallet
• Jack
• Wheel Chock
• Wrenches

We support Indianapolis drivers who want to change their oil, but we are here for you always if you change your mind and want us to change your oil.

Oil Change Tips

Here are some additional oil change tips to keep in mind:

• Refer to your owner’s manual to find how often you need to change the oil in your car, SUV, or truck.
• Your owner’s manual will also tell you whether your vehicle takes synthetic or conventional oil.
• To stay on top of your maintenance, you should change your oil every six-months 
• You may need to change your oil more often if you go off-road a lot in West Lafayette.
• You can usually save through our service specials that we update regularly
