What is included in an engine oil service?
Oil service at GM is part of the general service, not a separate SKU, so there is no standalone oil-change price. The general service includes engine oil and the oil filter, and it is quoted in writing after the free 30-point checkup. Scope depends on the quantity and brand of oil your car needs. We replace the oil and filter, then check related fluids and visible leaks, and confirm the estimate with you first.
Correct Oil Recommendation
Oil grade and quantity are matched to your vehicle’s requirement before service.

Four steps, in this order, every time
Diagnosis-first is the whole method: measure, write it down, then price it. It is also why every job, gas filling included, is quoted in writing after the checkup.
We test before we quote
The free 30-point A/C and electrical checkup runs first, about 15 minutes, with a written report of what was measured.
You get the estimate in writing
The report says what was found. Gas filling, like everything else, is quoted in writing after the checkup, and nothing starts until you approve it.
No work starts until you approve
Nothing is opened up or replaced before you say yes to the estimate. If the diagnosis changes the scope, you hear about it first.
Repaired, then checked again
The approved work is done and the car is checked again before handover.
Frequently asked questions
How often should I change engine oil in Chennai traffic?
Every 5,000–7,500 km for mineral oil or 8,000–10,000 km for synthetic, whichever your manufacturer recommends. Chennai stop-and-go traffic and heat stress oil faster than highway driving, so follow the shorter interval if your car sits in traffic daily.
Which engine oil grade is right for my car?
The correct grade (5W-30, 5W-40, 0W-20, etc.) depends on your car model, engine type and manufacturer specification. At GM Car A/C Service we check your owner manual recommendation and confirm the grade before starting, never a one-size-fits-all approach.
What happens if I delay an oil change too long?
Old oil loses viscosity and lubricating ability. This increases engine wear, raises operating temperature, reduces fuel economy and can eventually cause sludge buildup or engine seizure. If your oil warning light comes on, get it checked immediately.
Do you replace the oil filter with every oil change?
Yes, the oil filter is inspected and replaced as part of every oil service. A clogged filter restricts oil flow and defeats the purpose of fresh oil. We use filters appropriate for your vehicle model.
How long does an oil service take at GM Car A/C Service?
A standard engine oil and filter service takes 45–90 minutes depending on the vehicle. Walk-ins are welcome Monday–Saturday 10 AM – 8 PM. Call +91 84280 00085 to check availability.
Do you service electric vehicles (EVs)?
We service the AC and general electrical systems of electric and hybrid vehicles, cabin cooling, wiring and diagnostics. High-voltage battery and drivetrain work needs the vehicle manufacturer's own service network. Call +91 84280 00085 to confirm we can help with your EV model.
