An oil change is an essential part of maintaining your Toyota’s performance, longevity, and efficiency. At Ed Martin Toyota, we take great pride in delivering top-tier service with the expertise of our Toyota-trained technicians. Whether you’re in Noblesville or surrounding areas, here’s what to expect when you bring your Toyota in for an oil change.
Step 1: Scheduling Your Oil Change
Your journey to a smoother ride starts with an easy scheduling process. You can conveniently book your appointment online or give us a call. Our service department is ready to accommodate your schedule, ensuring that your Toyota is serviced at a time that’s most convenient for you.
Step 2: Arrival and Vehicle Inspection
Upon your arrival at Ed Martin Toyota, one of our service advisors will greet you. They will confirm your oil change service and conduct a quick, preliminary inspection of your Toyota. This helps us identify any other maintenance needs, ensuring that you’re fully informed before proceeding.
Step 3: Draining the Old Oil
Once your Toyota is safely positioned in the service bay, our skilled technicians begin by draining the old oil from the engine. This is a crucial step, as used oil can degrade engine performance and fuel efficiency. We take extra care to ensure that all of the old oil is removed before adding the new, fresh oil.
Step 4: Replacing the Oil Filter
Next, we replace the oil filter with a genuine Toyota part. The oil filter helps prevent dirt, debris, and other contaminants from circulating in your engine. Our commitment to using high-quality filters ensures that your Toyota’s engine remains clean and performs optimally for longer.
Step 5: Adding Fresh Oil
With the old oil drained and the filter replaced, our technicians will add the appropriate amount of fresh, high-quality oil. At Ed Martin Toyota, we exclusively use Genuine Toyota and Mobil 1 motor oils, formulated to provide maximum protection, enhance engine performance, and improve fuel efficiency.
Step 6: Final Checks
Once the oil change is complete, our technicians will perform a series of final checks. They will verify that the oil level is accurate and ensure that there are no leaks around the oil filter or drain plug. This step guarantees that your vehicle is road-ready.
Step 7: Resetting the Oil Change Light
Most modern Toyota vehicles are equipped with an oil change reminder light. After completing the oil change, we reset this light, ensuring that your Toyota’s systems are up to date and reminding you when it’s time for your next oil change.
Step 8: Post-Service Inspection and Test Drive
To ensure everything is running smoothly, our team conducts a post-service inspection and, if necessary, takes your Toyota for a quick test drive. This final check ensures your car is running as expected after the oil change and allows us to address any other concerns you may have.
Step 9: Service Summary and Next Steps
Before you leave, we’ll provide a comprehensive summary of the services performed. Our service advisor will also let you know when your next oil change is due, and provide you with helpful tips for maintaining your Toyota’s engine.
By adhering to Toyota’s recommended maintenance intervals, an oil change helps maintain your vehicle’s reliability, performance, and fuel efficiency. Whether you’re in Noblesville or nearby areas, the team at Ed Martin Toyota is here to keep your Toyota running smoothly with expert oil change services.
