Oil change: how we help
Need an oil change for your 1990 Dodge Shadow? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. The right oil grade for your engine is in the owner's manual.
About your Shadow
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Shadow. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The engine is the 2.2L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual.
What to send us
You approve the shop's quote before any work. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Good habits for your car
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Look at the tire tread before long trips.
Before the shop starts
Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour.
Over to you
A request is free and gets a reply within one business day.
Request oil change
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
