Your GMC engine is highly engineered with minimum tolerances. During the engine testing and design, the manufacturers chose a certain brand and grade of oil that works best with each engine. Changing the grade and sometimes even the brand of oil can affect the performance of the engine and increase wear and tear. That’s why we use the manufacturer recommended grade and brand of oil even if it’s a little more expensive, as it extends the engine life and gives better performance.

You can visually check for any oil spilled where the car is parked. If oil has spilled, there is a good chance of the engine oil light is from a leak. Also, you may have a minor leak, which may not leave a major puddle but over time can cause the oil level to fall. If not, then the problem could be that your GMC is burning oil internally due to excessive engine wear and tear. To avoid this, it is important that the correct oil grade recommended for your car is used.

At every service, we check the brake pads to assess its life and recommend changing them when they are at 20-15% of their life. Also, most modern cars have sensors to indicate when the brake pad is at the end of its life. If your car has brake pad sensors, we recommend changing the pads immediately (within 1000Km) once you get the warning on your dash. Changing your brake pads too late can lead to damaged disk brakes and calipers which are costly to repair or replace.
