Doral’s Auto Repair is a family owned and operated auto repair shop that offers comprehensive automotive services and repairs in San Leandro. Yet one of the most important services we offer is a simple, lowly oil change.
We all know cars need regular oil change, yet often life gets in the way. At Doral’s we urge you to make oil changes a high priority. First and foremost, regular oil changes extend engine life. In addition, they allow your vehicle to perform at its best, as the fresh engine oil lowers friction and carries away debris that naturally get generated when multiple moving parts work closely together. An added bonus – when you bring your vehicle for an oil change, it gives us an opportunity to inspect your vehicle for any signs of impending problems.

The dreaded “check engine light” has been introduced to alert drivers that something is not right with the car. But is it ok to drive around with the light “on”? The answer is twofold.
Is the check engine light flashing? If it is, you should not drive the vehicle at all. Park it where it’s safe to do so, turn off the engine, and have the car towed to a repair shop.
If the check engine light is not flashing and the car drives normally, there seem to be no issues with the engine, no misfires, then it’s usually ok to drive home, and then take it to a repair shop.
