I love our Volkswagen Jetta, it takes us everywhere and now with gas prices getting lower and lower everyday we"re looking forward to family vacations and roadtrips. A year ago things were alot different, the high gas prices forced us to become a one vehicle family, my husband"s long work commute was hurting our pockets. The Jetta is way more economical to use, it"s a high mileage vehicle with over 137,000 miles on it, but you wouldn"t notice unless you checked the odometer. The secret, routine car maintenance. We...well actually my husband is the one who stays on top of the car"s regular maintenance such as oil changing, checking fluids, tires, air filters this to keep our car performing at it"s best longer. I really have no patience for these places and having a 4 year old who can"t sit still at the sight of a candy machine nearby doesn"t help much. I really hate being stuck in a hot, cramped waiting room where there always seems to be a lack of seats. I thank Walmart for having an Auto Care Center easily available to the store.



Over the weekend we headed out to Walmart to pick up a few things for my daughter"s Valentine"s Day party at school and decided it was a great time to go ahead and drop off our car to get it"s much needed oil change. Drop off was quick with no waiting time, the technician said it would take about 40 minutes, this was the perfect amount of time to go in and shop instead of waiting. I was glad I wasn"t the only one who hates the waiting area because the small waiting room was empty! I"m pretty sure everyone else was in the store doing some shopping.

Before we even went inside to run our errands they had already started on my car, we chose the Pennzoil High Mileage Oil Change since it is designed for vehicles with over 75,000 miles. It helps reduce leaks and oil consumption and helps keep the engine running clean and going strong for many more years. In fact all Pennzoil products help clean out sludge lesser oils leave behind and are designed for complete protection, allowing you to drive a extra 550 miles per year vs. a dirty engine, no other motor oil provides better protection from friction. Pennzoil offers two other motor oils, Conventional Motor Oil and Platinum. If you are unsure which is right for your vehicle, ask to speak with an Automotive Care Center Manager.
Conventional Motor Oil ? A traditional oil base, fortified with Active Cleaning Agents? to continuously prevent dirt and contaminants from creating performance-robbing deposits.
Platinum (synthetic motor oil) ? Best cleanliness and protection in the Pennzoil line-up. With PurePlus? Technology, the Platinum® motor oil is proven to keep pistons up to 40% cleaner than the toughest industry standard. PurePlus? Technology is a revolutionary process that converts natural gas into a 99.5% pure base oil.
By the way, Pennzoil also offers a free warranty that covers 15 engine parts that may fail due to engine wear or which experience abnormal wear due to friction. For more info you can check out the Pennzoil Warranty Site.

I don"t know why I never knew that Walmart"s Auto Care Center would be open on a Sunday, like the store they"re also open 7 days a week with very convenient hours. Making errands run smoothly whenever your vehicle needs a quick oil change. I was very happy to see the rollback available at my local Houston Walmart"s for the Pennzoil High Mileage oil change down from $39.88 to only $35.88. Big Savings both money wise and time, nothing beats getting my car an oil change while doing errands. Multitasking at it"s best! 
Now if you"re like me, always on the lookout for a good deal and have some handy skills changing your own oil, Ibotta is offering a great rebate which started on 1/21/2015 - 2/13/2015 get $5 off on the purchase of one 5-quart bottle of Pennzoil Platinum with PurePlus Technology.
