Keep Your Engine Running Smoothly with Expert Maintenance
At Andy’s Automotive, we believe that routine maintenance is the key to keeping your vehicle running reliably, efficiently, and safely. One of the most critical aspects of this maintenance? Regular oil changes and fluid services. Whether you're commuting daily, running errands around town, or gearing up for a road trip, proper fluid care helps ensure your car performs at its best — mile after mile.
We’re proud to offer fast, professional, and affordable oil change and fluid services. With decades of combined experience, our ASE-certified technicians treat every vehicle like it’s their own, using only high-quality products and up-to-date service techniques.
Why Oil Changes Matter
Your engine is the heart of your vehicle, and oil is its lifeblood. It lubricates moving parts, reduces friction, minimizes wear, and helps control engine temperature. Over time, engine oil breaks down and becomes contaminated with dirt, moisture, and combustion byproducts — leading to:
- Reduced fuel efficiency
- Engine wear and overheating
- Sluggish performance
- Potential long-term damage
Skipping or delaying oil changes can lead to costly repairs down the road. That’s why we recommend routine service at the intervals specified in your owner’s manual or every 3,000–7,500 miles, depending on oil type and driving habits.
Our Oil Change Service Includes:
At Andy’s Automotive, we don’t just swap out your oil — we perform a complete maintenance check designed to keep you informed and your car healthy. Our standard oil change service includes:
- Drain and replace engine oil using high-quality synthetic blend or full synthetic oil (per manufacturer specifications)
- Install new oil filter to protect your engine from contaminants
- Check and top off essential fluids, including coolant, transmission fluid, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and windshield washer fluid
- Inspect belts and hoses for wear or cracks
- Check air filter for cleanliness and performance
- Check tire pressure and adjust as needed
- Visual inspection of engine, undercarriage, and visible components
- Reset maintenance reminder light, if applicable
We also offer high-mileage oil for older vehicles and performance-grade synthetic oils for high-performance engines. Just ask — we’ll recommend what’s best for your vehicle.
Comprehensive Fluid Services
While oil is crucial, your vehicle relies on several other fluids to function properly. At Andy’s Automotive, we offer complete fluid inspections, flushes, and replacements to ensure every system is protected and running smoothly.
Transmission Fluid Service
Transmission fluid lubricates gears, cools the system, and helps your vehicle shift properly. Over time, it degrades due to heat and wear. We inspect fluid condition and level and offer:
- Transmission fluid top-offs
- Complete transmission fluid flush and replacement
- Transmission filter replacement (when applicable)
Brake Fluid Service
Brake fluid is vital for safe stopping power. It absorbs moisture over time, which can corrode brake components and reduce braking efficiency. We offer:
- Brake fluid testing
- Brake fluid flush and replacement to ensure clean, responsive braking
Coolant/Antifreeze Service
Coolant (or antifreeze) regulates your engine’s temperature and protects it from freezing or overheating. Dirty or old coolant can lead to overheating or internal corrosion. Our services include:
- Coolant level inspection
- Coolant flush and refill with the right antifreeze mix for your vehicle
- Pressure testing of the cooling system to detect leaks
Power Steering Fluid Service
Power steering fluid allows you to steer your vehicle smoothly and with minimal effort. Contaminated fluid can cause steering stiffness or noise. We offer:
- Power steering fluid checks
- Complete power steering fluid flush and refill
Windshield Washer Fluid
Often overlooked but always important, windshield washer fluid keeps your visibility clear. We always top off your washer fluid as part of our oil change service — no extra charge.
Signs You Might Need a Fluid Service
Don’t wait for dashboard lights or breakdowns to alert you. Here are some common signs your vehicle might be due for a fluid service:
- Sluggish acceleration or rough shifting
- Grinding or whining noises from the engine or transmission
- Overheating or rising engine temperature
- Soft, spongy, or delayed braking
- Steering that feels heavy or unresponsive
- Dirty or low fluid levels (visible on dipsticks or reservoirs)
- Fluid leaks under your vehicle
If you notice any of these symptoms, bring your vehicle to Andy’s Automotive. We’ll diagnose the issue and recommend the right service — no upselling, just honest advice.
