I grew up with a dad that could always fix our cars...so when I moved away and found myself in San Luis Obispo and needing a mechanic, I was so thankful that EVERYONE on my street said "Go to Reeves!" John is so easy to talk to, explains everything, always happy to educate, and such a good person. The staff is friendly, honest and helpful and they take such good care of their costumers. Thank you for everything!!!

At Reeves Auto Repair in San Luis Obispo, CA, we recommend always making it a priority to change your oil on time. Here’s a look into why it’s so important, and what happens if you don’t keep up with oil changes.

Sludge - If oil stays in an engine too long, sludge begins to build up anywhere oil can go. The oil absorbs tiny debris and contaminants, kind of like a liquid sponge - once it’s at capacity, that oil begins to stick, clog, and build up throughout the engine. Small veins that carry oil to components like actuators, turbos, and bearings will become blocked, starving critical components of oil and causing component or engine failure.
