How Long Does an Oil Change Take If I Do It Myself?

If you do your own oil change in Apex or Morrisville, the amount of time it takes can vary. It will usually take an hour, but it could be more or less than that depending on your experience level. You’ll need a few things to change your own oil: new oil, a new oil filter, an oil filter gasket, a rubber mallet, correctly sized wrenches, a jack, and wheel blocks. For many local drivers, coming to the experts at Hendrick Cadillac Cary usually costs less money and less time than performing their oil change at home. 

Average Oil Change Time: Additional Information

When you are ready for an oil change, consider the following: 

  • These days, new vehicles only need oil changes every 5,000 – 7,500 miles. Some models can even go up to 10,000 miles between oil changes. Explore your owner’s manual for a specific oil change interval.
  • Browse our service specials page for oil change coupons and other discounted services.
  • Confirm whether your vehicle requires synthetic or conventional oil. Synthetic oil typically costs more, but it won’t affect the time required for an oil change.

How Much Does an Oil Change Cost?

Oil change costs will vary depending on your needs; synthetic oil is more expensive than conventional oil, usually costing between $45 and $70. It lasts longer and is designed for high-performance engines. However, a standard oil change can cost between $25 and $50.
