Question: Does Valvoline fill tires for free?

Answer: Valvoline Instant Oil Change (VIOC) doesn’t fill tires or check tire pressure for free, but the services are included as a part of the 18-point maintenance included with every oil change. This 18-point inspection includes:

  1. Tire air pressure
  2. Air filter
  3. Automatic transmission fluid
  4. Battery test (at certain locations)
  5. Brake fluid
  6. Cabin air filter (if you request it)
  7. Differential fluids (if you request it)
  8. Headlights
  9. Lubricate chassis (if needed)
  10. Power steering fluid
  11. Radiator fluid
  12. Oil change light (reset)
  13. Taillights
  14. Transfer case fluid (if you request it)
  15. Under chassis visual inspection
  16. Under hood visual inspection
  17. Windshield washer fluid
  18. Wiper blades

Some service centers will also check your antifreeze/coolant.

Our experts at Jerry estimate that a Valvoline oil change will cost you between $45 to $100 depending on your vehicle and location.

You can also stop by a Valvoline quick lube to just get a fluid top off.

Valvoline tire rotation service

Valvoline also offers tire rotation services in addition to oil changes. Regularly rotating your tires can help improve your car’s handling, traction, and fuel economy, get you more life out of your tires, and promote even wear on the tread.

It only takes them about 10 to 20 minutes to perform this maintenance service while also completing your oil change.

Valvoline does not sell new tires or repair flat tires.
