We can help you navigate the confusing world of motor oil and get your oil changed quickly, so it doesn’t dip into your busy schedule.
Oil Types Offered at West Houston Volkswagen
When you stop in for an oil change service, our certified technicians will first drain your contaminated motor oil and remove the filter. We will then inspect the oil reservoir for any leaks before installing a new filter and filling the reservoir with fresh oil. The type of oil we use will depend on your Volkswagen model, and the year it was manufactured. We offer the full range of oil change services, including:
- Full Synthetic - This oil is manufactured from various non-petroleum chemicals to enhance performance in your engine. Also known as Full-synthetic oil, its additives impart benefits such as resistance to thermal breakdown and an optimal viscosity for lubrication purposes.
- Conventional - This inexpensive option is derived from crude petroleum. It typically has no additives and is also known as Regular or Standard oil.
- Semi-Synthetic - This motor oil is a blend of the previous two types: conventional and full-synthetic oils. It is therefore known as a Synthetic Blend and exhibits many of the benefits of a full-synthetic oil. The two components' ratio may vary, with no more than 30% synthetic oil, which makes the cost lower than a full-synthetic version.
- Diesel - If you have a diesel engine, it will require diesel oil, which is specifically made for the unique lubrication requirements of such an engine, using different additives.
