At Nelson’s Automotive, we know that oil changes aren’t glamorous, but they are essential. That’s why we make it fast, affordable, and easy to get one. Whether you're squeezing it in during your lunch break or stopping by after work, our same-day oil change services keep your engine running smoothly and your life running on time.
Our certified technicians use high-quality oil and filters tailored to your vehicle's make and model, ensuring long-term engine health and optimal performance without any of the upselling or pressure tactics you’ll find at other shops.
You’ve got places to be, and we’re here to help you get there. When you bring your car into Nelson’s for an oil change, you’ll get quick, professional service from people who care about your car as much as you do.
We check fluid levels, inspect filters, and keep an eye out for anything that might cause trouble down the road. Most oil changes are done in under an hour, so you’ll be back behind the wheel before your coffee gets cold. Best of all, you can save big on your next oil change by taking advantage of some of our in-store discounts and specials!
Regular oil changes are the backbone of basic car maintenance, and skipping them can cost you big. Our team doesn’t just swap the oil and call it a day. We treat every oil change as an opportunity to check in on your vehicle’s overall health.
From unusual wear patterns to engine leaks or low fluid levels, we keep an eye out for early warning signs so you can avoid unexpected repairs (and costs) later. With Nelson’s, you get more than fresh oil — you get a trusted partner in your car’s care from an auto repair company that’s rooted in your community.
