Pistons and shafts overheat and seize up unless protected by a slick, shiny coating of oil, just like classical Greco-Roman wrestlers. Keep your engine parts from throttling each other with today's Groupon: for $149, you get a comprehensive auto service package at Eastside Auto Service in Oakville (a $299.80 value).

Eastside Auto Service’s experienced technicians check dipsticks, tighten lug nuts, and administer Canadian Automobile Association-approved auto repair services with an astute attention to detail. Wayward coupes and unruly sedans go from feral to fabulous after being dropped off for a boot camp of expert services and finishing lessons in proper roadside manners. A lube oil and filter service tops engines off with five litres of quencher (a $39.95 value), and synthetic oil is available for an extra charge. A 140-point comprehensive vehicle inspection (a $149.95 value) nitpicks nuances and bestows drivers with a breakdown of boo-boos in order of importance.

Like chronic ballerinas, tires need to be rotated from time to time, so technicians conduct a tire and wheel analysis examining the rubber condition, tread depth and wear pattern, followed by a rotation and balance service (a $69.95 value). A battery and charging system inspection and analysis concludes the sub-hood services, and a mini detailing splatters sports cars with a bevy of spa services. After an exterior wash, interior vacuum, window cleaning and tire dressing (a $39.95 value), autos leave the garage more refreshed than if they showered in lemonade.

Eastside Auto Service offers all Groupon customers a complimentary customer care kit, which includes a rewards card that earns dollars good for services or charitable donations, 24/7 continent-wide roadside assistance, and a two-year, 40,000 mile nationwide warranty. Eastside’s free local shuttle service conveys drivers up to 10 km and runs on carrier pigeon concentrate.
