Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers about KAY-C Automotive's mobile oil change and windshield repair services across the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley.

Mobile Oil Change

What is a mobile oil change?+

A mobile oil change is a professional oil change service that comes to your location — your home, office, or wherever your car is parked. KAY-C Automotive technicians arrive fully equipped with premium full synthetic oil, filters, and tools to complete the service at your doorstep. No driving to a shop, no waiting rooms, no wasted time.

How much does a mobile oil change cost?+

KAY-C Automotive offers competitive pricing for mobile oil changes across BC. Pricing varies based on vehicle type and service package. Download the KAY-C app or call (236) 882-6628 for an instant quote. New customers can save $30 with promo code KAYC30.

What is included in the mobile oil change?+

The standard mobile oil change includes up to 5L of full synthetic oil, a premium oil filter, a multi-point vehicle inspection, fluid level check, and tire pressure check. The Premium Package adds fluid top-up, interior vacuum, interior wipe down, exterior hand wash, and exterior wax.

What oil do you use for oil changes?+

KAY-C Automotive uses premium full synthetic oil as standard for all oil changes — never conventional. Full synthetic oil provides better engine protection, longer intervals between changes, and superior performance in BC's varying temperatures from cold winters to hot summers.

How long does a mobile oil change take?+

Most mobile oil changes take between 20 and 40 minutes depending on the vehicle. Our technicians are experienced and efficient. You can continue your day while we handle everything — no need to wait at a shop.

Why is a mobile oil change better than going to a shop?+

With a mobile oil change, you save time, avoid driving to a shop, skip the waiting room, and get premium full synthetic oil as standard. KAY-C comes to you on your schedule — even evenings and weekends. Many shops use conventional oil and upsell unnecessary services. KAY-C keeps it honest and convenient.

Windshield Repair

Can a windshield chip be repaired or does it need replacement?+

Most windshield chips can be repaired if they are smaller than a quarter (25mm) and haven't spread into long cracks. KAY-C Automotive repairs chips and cracks up to 12 inches long with a lifetime warranty. If the damage is too severe, we will advise you honestly about replacement options.

Does ICBC cover windshield chip repair?+

Yes, ICBC typically covers windshield chip repairs through the Glass Express program at no cost to you (no deductible). Windshield replacements are covered under comprehensive insurance, though you may need to pay your deductible. No police report is needed for glass-only claims.

Do you offer a warranty on windshield repairs?+

Yes, all KAY-C Automotive windshield chip and crack repairs come with a lifetime warranty. If the repair ever fails — even years later — we will redo it at no charge. This applies to all walk-in and mobile service repairs.

How long does a windshield chip repair take?+

A windshield chip repair typically takes 15–20 minutes. Crack repairs may take slightly longer depending on the length. You can walk in to any of our tent locations or book a mobile repair — either way, it is a quick process.

What types of windshield damage can you repair?+

We repair all common types of windshield damage: bullseye chips, star breaks, half-moon chips, combination breaks, and straight cracks up to 12 inches. If the damage is directly in the driver's line of sight or larger than what can be safely repaired, we will recommend replacement instead.
