Service Options
Speedy Lube's service options are standardized and tailored to best fit your vehicles’ needs while following manufacturers specifications. Today some vehicle's have quick and easy access to change the oil and filter, while other vehicles have multiple lower covers with multiple and difficult access grease joints. Customers with quick and easy vehicle designs should not be charged the same as those vehicles that require more time and procedures. Speedy Lube has three levels of labor charge ranging from quick and easy to time consuming. The vehicle design dictates which labor charge fits the selected service desired. The decision on which standard service you desire is the customers.
Synthetic Oil Advantages
The synthetic oil film is tougher and includes better additive packages in the oil. Resists viscosity (thickness) breakdown better and lasts longer. Withstands higher temperatures by resisting thermal break down better. Synthetic oils flow better in cold weather due to lower viscosities. However, lower viscosity oils may leak more if the engine is not sealed well. Synthetic blend oils are synthetic and conventional oil blended together. This option is less viscous for higher mileage engines to limit leaks. Additionally, many drivers option for a high mileage oil additive, which contains seal swell that can reduce leaks as well as additives that allow combustion contaminants to stay suspended in the oil until the oil is changed.

Why not have everything checked on the vehicle at every oil change?
Disadvantages: Vehicle manufacturers do not design most vehicle fasteners or plugs to be removed and reinstalled as frequently as the oil and filter should be changed. Air filter housings, differential, transfer-case, and power train unit fasteners or plugs may prematurely wear out more quickly. This wear may damage unit casings and internal components when fasteners and plugs are worn out. Review your vehicle's maintenance manual tasks and this fact often bears true.
Advantages: Older vehicle gear box units may leak and need more frequent checking to maintain adequate fluid levels. Additionally, some people have only had oil and filter changes and should consider deeper services. Others may drive on dirt roads or in construction areas and need air filters inspected more often.
People seam to assume common Facebook and Google business ratings are somehow accurate. However, we have found that people post complaints about other businesses on our site as well as make bogus claims from competitor associations. Google does not have a policy that allows a business to remove those inaccurate / invalid complaints or ratings.
It is interesting that we have many companies boast their services could remove various ratings and comments as well as acquire more higher ratings. Doesn't that make you wonder what the ratings mean if money can change those ratings.
