How much is an oil change in Long Beach?

At Ochoa's Tire Service, a synthetic blend oil change starts at $84.99 for a 4-cylinder (up to 5 quarts), and full synthetic starts at $109.99. Six- and eight-cylinder engines run $94.99 to $139.99, and 12-cylinder or European-spec engines are $179.99 full synthetic. Every price includes the filter and a multi-point inspection, at both shops. Extra quarts are $7 blend or $10 full synthetic.

How often do I need an oil change in Long Beach?

It depends on your vehicle and oil type. Conventional oil typically needs changing every 3,000–5,000 miles. Full synthetic can go 7,500–10,000 miles. Check your owner's manual or the sticker in your windshield — and factor in that stop-and-go Long Beach commuting is harder on oil than highway driving.

What oil does my vehicle take?

Your owner's manual specifies the correct viscosity grade (e.g., 5W-30, 0W-20) and whether conventional or synthetic is required. Most modern vehicles require full synthetic. We look this up for every vehicle before we touch it — we won't put the wrong oil in your engine.

Does an oil change include a multi-point inspection?

Yes. Every oil change at Ochoa's includes a visual inspection of your brake pad thickness, tire tread and pressure, fluid levels, belts and hoses, and any obvious leaks. We'll flag anything that needs attention without pressuring you to fix it on the spot.

How long does an oil change take?

The oil change itself takes about 20–30 minutes once the parts are here. We order the correct oil and filter for each vehicle from our supplier, and delivery times vary, so we can't guarantee an exact time. Call ahead with your year, make, and model so we can order your parts, and plan your day accordingly.

Can I get an oil change at your Long Beach shop on the weekend?

Yes. Cherry Ave is open Monday through Sunday, including Sundays 8 AM to 4 PM. Paramount Blvd is open Monday through Saturday. Because we order oil and filters for each vehicle, call ahead either day so we can get your parts on the way.

Full-Service Oil Change

More Than Just Oil and a Filter

Ochoa's Tire Service does oil changes at both Long Beach shops — Cherry Ave and Paramount Blvd. We order the correct oil and filter for each vehicle from our supplier, so call ahead: delivery times vary and we can't guarantee an exact time. Every oil change includes a multi-point inspection, with no commission-driven upselling. Open 7 days at Cherry Ave. For how to pick your interval, see how often you really need an oil change.

An oil change at Ochoa's is a full under-hood service visit, not a conveyor-belt drive-through. We change the oil and filter, reset your oil life monitor, and do a visual multi-point inspection on everything we can see while we're under your vehicle.

We tell you what we find — and we let you decide what to do about it. We don't pressure upsells. If your air filter is fine, we'll tell you it's fine. If your brake pads are getting low, we'll show you and give you a quote so you can plan. That's how a family shop builds long-term customers.

Which Oil Is Right for Your Vehicle?

Conventional

⏱ 3,000–5,000 miles

Standard mineral-based oil. Still the right call for many older vehicles and drivers who change oil frequently.

Best for: Older vehicles, low-mileage drivers, engines with simple specs

Synthetic Blend

⏱ 5,000–7,500 miles

A mix of conventional and synthetic base oils — better high-temp protection and longer drain intervals than conventional without the full cost of synthetic.

Best for: Trucks, SUVs, moderate towing/hauling, daily drivers

Full Synthetic

⏱ 7,500–10,000 miles

Engineered molecules that resist breakdown longer, flow better at cold starts, and protect better under high loads. Required by many modern engine specifications.

Best for: Modern engines, turbocharged vehicles, performance cars, extreme climates

High Mileage

⏱ 5,000–7,500 miles

Formulated with seal conditioners, detergents, and antioxidants targeted at higher-mileage engines. Helps reduce oil consumption and minor seeps in older engines.

Best for: Vehicles over 75,000 miles
