Keep your fleet running longer
Managing a fleet of trucks, buses, or coaches is challenging, as these vehicles need to operate daily to stay profitable. We provide high-quality Caltex products and services to help keep your fleet moving forward.
Our oil analysis programme
For fleet operators aiming to increase productivity and optimise vehicle performance, monitoring oil condition is an effective method for tracking the health of the lubrication system. Regular fixed service intervals can sometimes lead to oil drain intervals that are shorter than necessary, and parts being changed before they need to be.
Our Oil Analysis programme offers a simple and effective way for monitoring vehicle performance. By regularly analysing oil samples, you can optimise oil change intervals, identify lubrication needs and understand the changing conditions within your equipment. This information allows for precise maintenance scheduling, reducing downtime and minimising the risk of major failures.
