BMW M635csi getting oil levels checked via dipstick

An oil change might seem simple, but for modern European engines, it’s a precision service. At Northwest European Autoworks, we use manufacturer-approved synthetic oils and filters to keep your engine running clean, cool, and powerful.

We don't just swap oil, we help your engine stay healthy for the long haul.

More than maintenance, it’s protection.

Our Step-by-Step Process:

Meticulous process to ensure the most essential service is performed correctly:


  • Vehicle-Specific Oil Selection
    We choose the exact oil spec (VW 502.00, BMW LL-01, Mercedes 229.5, etc.) your engine requires.

  • OEM-Quality Filter Installation
    We install filters designed for your vehicle’s flow rate and particle capture standards.

  • Oil Level & Condition Verification
    We verify oil levels precisely and inspect drained oil for contamination or metal shavings.

  • Maintenance Reset & Inspection
    We reset service indicators and perform a complimentary visual inspection of critical systems.


Why Proper Oil Changes Matter:

Fresh oil protects internal engine components from heat, friction, and sludge buildup. Skipping or delaying oil service risks turbo failure, timing chain damage, and premature engine wear.

& your vehicle!
