Preventative Maintenance & Inspection

Protect your vehicle’s engine life and maintain factory warranty compliance with precision fluid maintenance and complete visual inspections.

Routine Upkeep is the Ultimate Insurance

Modern engines rely on ultra-tight manufacturing tolerances and direct-injection fuel systems that operate under extreme pressure and thermal stress. Clean, correct-viscosity oil reduces friction, dissipates heat, and seals piston rings against combustion chamber blow-by.

At Lex Auto Solutions in Richmond, every scheduled service includes our comprehensive Courtesy Multi-Point Check. We examine vital systems under the hood, on the lift, and around the chassis to identify minor wear before it causes an expensive roadside breakdown.

What Every Scheduled Service Includes

Engine Oil & Filter

Premium synthetic blends and OEM filters matched to manufacturer viscosity requirements.

Transmission Fluid

Lubricates and cools gear components, maintaining smooth shifts and preventing transmission wear.

Coolant & Antifreeze

Hydrometric test of freeze/boil points and pH levels to protect aluminum engine blocks and radiators.

Brake Fluid Moisture Test

Evaluation of boiling points and copper content to prevent vapor lock and internal caliper corrosion.

Air & Cabin Filters

Inspection of engine induction filters for fuel efficiency and cabin microfilters for air quality.

Battery & Charging System

Cold cranking amps (CCA) load test, alternator output test, and terminal corrosion inspection.

Understanding Engine Oil Viscosity

Whether your vehicle specifies 0W-20, 5W-30, or European-grade 5W-40, we only use motor oils that meet strict OEM approvals (VW 504/507, BMW Longlife, Mercedes-Benz 229.5, Dexos). The first number indicates winter flow to protect cams during cold startups; the second number ensures oil film strength under operating heat.
