Oil change service in Calgary
Walk-ins welcomeAn oil change is the single most important thing you can do to keep your engine alive, and every one at JCo Auto includes a free 20-point inspection. We use conventional, synthetic blend or full synthetic oil to match your car and driving, and we tell you what we found before you leave.

Frequently asked questions
Which oil does my car need?+
It depends on your engine, your mileage and how you drive. We check your oil type and mileage and use conventional, synthetic blend or full synthetic oil to match your vehicle. We'll also remind you of the right interval for your car.
What's in the free 20-point inspection?+
We check your brakes, tires, suspension, steering, fluids, belts and hoses, plus lights and other safety items. You get a clear explanation of what needs attention now and what can wait.
Can I combine an oil change with a tire rotation?+
Yes. Pairing a tire rotation with your oil change saves you a separate trip and helps your tires wear evenly. Just ask when you book or walk in.
