Oil Change and Lubrication Services
It is important to change your oil and oil filter on a regular basis. One of the jobs that oil does is to collect nasty stuff generated during normal engine operation; It’s important to get these particles and chemicals out of your engine periodically.
In addition, oil “wears out” over time, losing some of its ability to lubricate and protect your engine.
Shore Drive Shell uses high-quality 5W-30 oil with the proper specification for your car, and NAPA filters. We will be happy to substitute other grades and brands, but it may take longer to finish the job.
We offer three levels of oil change service:
- Basic Oil Change – This is the service you want if you are in a hurry and just want to stop feeling guilty about your car. We put in up to 5 quarts of high quality 5W-30 and install a new in-stock oil filter. We put a sticker on your windshield that reminds you to come back in 3000 miles or three months (or whenever you get feeling really guilty again). All of our oil changes include a comprehensive courtesy check including topping off the fluids and checking the pressure in the tires.
- Premier Oil Change – You get the basic service and we a apply engine flush and BG-brand MOA to extend the oil change interval to 5000 miles!
- BG-brand 7500 Mile Service – LISTEN! – this is the most important information you will find on this website! Synthetic oil will make your engine last longer, run better, and may increase your gas mileage. Jet engines use synthetic oil. Porsches and Corvettes come from the factory with synthetic oil. My 1972 Triumph engine was rebuilt twenty years ago, runs only synthetic oil and still runs like new. Synthetic oil lubricates better than regular oil and does not break down like regular oil, so you can leave it in the engine longer. It’s not just better – it’s a LOT better! This service is the same as the Premier service with the 16-point check, but includes up to five quarts of BG-brand full synthetic oil.
