An oil change service is draining old, used engine oil from a vehicle into a pan and replacing it with fresh, clean oil and a new oil filter.
Like most lubricating and cooling fluids that keep vehicles running, engine oil needs to be changed at some point. Metal particles and debris from engine parts gradually darken and thicken the oil, reducing its effectiveness. Oil filters are small, replaceable parts designed to remove this debris but have a limited lifespan. When changing your oil, you should also replace the filter.
Oil changes are important to enhance the efficiency of a vehicle.
An oil change is essential as it enhances the overall efficiency and performance of a car, truck, or van. Here’s why you need an oil change service on a regular basis:
Changing the oil in your car is usually a quick and painless procedure when performed at a modernized automotive service centre. Lubricating oil in your vehicle is important to its well-being. Here are some of the core warning signs that you are overdue.
The engine oil that runs through the engine is critical to keeping it running smoothly, efficiently, and safely. It accomplishes this in four major ways:
Reducing friction and preventing excessive wear: The oil forms a layer of lubricating protection over all of the engine’s sensitive components. This reduces friction and prevents metal-on-metal contact between the moving parts.
Cleanliness: The motor oil picks up dirt, debris, and combustion deposits as it circulates through the engine, preventing them from accumulating and causing negative blockages. The oil renders these things harmless until your next oil change when the dirty oil is removed.
Excess heat removal: As your engine runs, it generates a lot of heat. The motor oil safely absorbs the excess heat, redistributes it throughout the engine, and aids in the prevention of overheating.
Now you know how critical an oil change is to your engine. Other than the fact that new oil is put in, do you know exactly what an oil change service entails?
Here is exactly what your technician will do during a full-service oil change:

Good and timely service! I was called about a worn serpentine belt, given the price and asked if I wanted True Auto to repair. I did, and they charged what was quoted. I recommend True Auto! 👍

I am completely happy with the very professional and knowledgeable folks at True Auto. With my Honda warranty now expired there is no need to go out of my way to a dealership.True Auto will be my go-to place for all the service my CRV needs in the future.

My Acura broke down near Fergus the other day- I was able to limp it into the shop. They took care of it the next day (surprisingly quick!) which made me even happier! Even more appreciated was the texting feature- they gave me the breakdown on my car and the other issues it may be having. Very timely and efficient in my opinion. There was no nonsense, no up-selling, and no pressure tactics- part of why I am so impressed. Can’t say that for every shop out there. Facility is also very clean and up to date. I have happily referred my sister and brother in law (who live in Fergus) to this auto centre.

I called this morning to get a crack in my windshield repaired, new tires, and also brighter head lights installed. It was all completed the same day. They were professional from start to finish. I will be taking my truck in the future to True Auto Care.

Always amazing service, I have been coming here since moving to Fergus in 2016, and will continue to do so! Kyle was so helpful.
Victoria Heppolette Nov 11, 2022
Friendly and informative staff. The technician told me that my vehicle didn't need the service that I called about. They could have taken advantage but instead, they were honest and forthright. I would recommend them without hesitation.

Back in 2007 I purchased a brand new Mini Cooper convertible. During the warranty period I dealt with the Mini dealership. In August 2012 there was a noise from under the car. Turned out to be a muffler. This was my first interaction with True Auto Care. The muffler came with a lifetime warranty. Fast forward to August 2022 when a new noise appeared from under the car. After removing a couple rotten pipe sections and replacing with new sleeves the exhaust problem was solved. That was a span of 10 years. Over that time I have trusted my Mini to no one else but True Auto Care for all its necessary service. In a week my wife and I will be moving from Elora, where we've lived for the last 40 years, to Kitchener (we jokingly call it East Berlin.) The move in no means means that we will be searching for a new company to service our vehicles; no, we will continue to trust True Auto Care and will return to them for any service required, even if we have to have the vehicle's towed to Fergus. BTW, that muffler on the Mini is still doing its job. . — Brian Cameron

Very Professional, car was done when they said it would be. Great service,
Susanne Wilmot Nov 11, 2021
Friendly enough people. Was able to get my car in at a decent date. Did a good job fixing my car I have no complaints there! Prices are fairly good. I might think about going back, the only thing stopping me is they were not very accommodating when it came to me bringing my own parts in. Apparently they charge more for that which I find totally unfair because I was bringing more work to them including previous visits there. I find them charging more when you have your own parts very Petty and don't think it's fair.
Angela Molendyk Nov 11, 2021
Great. Fair prices and always helpful. Will return
Joanne Smithers Oct 10, 2021

Deed K Aug 8, 2021
My experience at True Auto Care has been nothing but positive. They are always there to help answer questions when needed and fix the problem at hand. I often drop my car off before work and they communicate with me efficiently throughout the day (via text or over the phone). My car is always ready when they say it will be and they make the pick up process easy based on my schedule and needs. I would highly recommend their services for regular maintenance as well as any other issue that arise.
Amanda Voisin Aug 8, 2021
Excellent as always! Thank you again. I purchased tires a few months ago and had concerns for how loud there were. Ron and the staff at True Auto got me in quickly and looked into my fears. We discussed everything and my worries were addressed.

great! transparent
Kate Kobbes Jun 6, 2021
Fantastic team! It's unheard of to get a BMW service bill under 3 digits. The team assessed my problem and came back with two options (one being take it to BMW for authentic parts). I chose their simple solution. Appreciated the option offering. Great solution and FANTASTIC cost. They've earned a new repeat customer!
