Oil Changes & Fluid Flush Services for Calgary SW & SE

Book AppointmentCall 403-258-3030

Oil changes are not the only fluid services your vehicle needs. Though they are extremely important. Most people put off the basic oil change service to save money, but what they don’t realize is that an oil change is worth more then you think. An oil change truly will cost you under a $100 dollars but is worth thousands. This basic service will literally save your engine. Its much more costly to replace an engine then simply change the oil.

You know that you need to bring your vehicle in every 3 months or 5,000 km to get your oil change.  You have a little more kilometres to go if your using synthetic oil. But do you know when you need to bring it in for a transmission fluid change, brake fluid change, cooling system flush or power steering fluid flush?

Brake Fluid Flush – Every 2 Years / 40,000 Km

Your vehicle’s brake fluid system is designed to transfer the pressure at the brake pedal to hydraulic pressure, which is used to compress the brake components.

Why is this service important?

Your vehicle’s brake fluid system is designed to transfer the pressure at the brake pedal to hydraulic pressure, which is used to compress the brake components.
•    Brake fluid is hydroscopic – it absorbs moisture, and moisture destroys expensive parts.
•    Moisture also causes brake fluid to boil at a lower temperature, affecting braking.
•    A brake fluid flush removes corrosive metals from the brake system.
•    It’s much less expensive to change the fluid than some very expensive parts.
Having a brake fluid flush every 40,000 km will help ensure that your braking system lives a long and healthy life, providing you with optimum braking power, reliability and safety. And with our value pricing and quick servicing, we get you back on the road quickly at a great price!

•    Rotor damage from overheating
•    Premature wear of the brake pads

Cooling System Fluid Flush – Every 5 years, 50,000 KM

Your vehicle’s cooling system is designed to cool internal engine components, prevent engine coolant freeze, lubricate water pump seals and bearings, and prevent internal engine corrosion.

Why is this service important?

•    Provides optimum boil and freeze protection.

Power Steering Fluid Flush – Every 50,000 KM Synthetic

Your vehicle’s power steering system fluids are used to lubricate, cool and protect the parts they surround.

Why is this service important? 


Your vehicle’s power steering system fluids are used to lubricate, cool and protect the parts they surround.
•    Replenishes the additive package that is depleted over time in the fluid.
•    Lengthens the life of the seals and internal components of the system.
•    Removes the contaminants that wear the rack and pinion / steering box and pump.
•    Helps to reduce wear of the gears and shafts.

Having a power steering fluid flush every 50,000 km will help ensure that your power steering system lives a long and healthy life, providing you with reliable and safe steering that you can depend on. And with our value pricing and quick servicing, we get you back on the road quickly at a great price!

•    Leaks
•    A loss of steering assist (which can cause an accident if it occurs without warning)
•    Shortened power steering pump life
•    Steering gear failure

Transmission Fluid Flush – Every 2 years or 50,000 km
