How to choose

If you’re keeping the car a long time
The Lifetime Protection Plan starts at $99.95 and covers the lubricated parts of the engine, brakes, power steering, coolant and fuel systems — up to $4,000 of repair coverage for cars enrolled at up to 36,000 miles, and up to $2,000 for 36,001 to 75,000 miles. Enrollment depends on a Better or Best oil change, so if you plan to keep your car, start there.
If you just need fresh oil
The Good oil change keeps your engine protected between services. It just doesn’t count toward the plan.
Prefer a greener option?
We also offer re-refined motor oil such as EcoPower, which takes less energy to produce. It’s one of the ways Neal’s Garage goes green.
Every oil change comes with a free inspection
Whichever you choose, our ASE-certified technicians run the free multi-point inspection at the same visit — brakes, tires, lights, steering, belts, fluid levels and more. Not sure how often to come in? Read How often should you change your oil?
