Default Auto Lube Recommendations Needed

Back home I had a trustworthy lube business that I used and not once did they try to upsell the service. I have had the car serviced twice down here and both times, they tried to upsell...said I needed power steering fluid change....radiator flush...cabin filter...etc....plus when they made out the window oil change reminder they set it for 3000 miles. Should have been
5K for synthetic oil.

Can anyone recommend a quick lube place that will not try to sell me service that I don't need?

For oil changes and tire rotations, I have gone many times to Wildwood Tire Co. on 44 just east of 301. In and out quickly. I highly recommend them.

Sumter Tire & Auto on 301 just a blk. or 2 north of 466A on the east side of the road is very honest & will not UPSELL U. They are a new advertiser on TOTV.
