No oil change

The 12-volt still dies. Tires still wear. Brake fluid still ages. Decline the ICE menu.

Still service

12V battery — load test, age. This strands more EVs than the pack.
Tires — rotate, door-sticker PSI, even wear from torque.
Brake fluid — years. Pads may last; rust and glaze still happen.
Cabin filter. Coolant loops with the right chemistry.

Not on the menu

No oil change

No spark plugs. No "trans flush" on a single-speed reduction gear unless the book lists a fluid. Decline the ICE lane. If they want inverter coolant, ask which loop and which jug.

0112V battery is the silent killerThe traction pack can be fine and the car still bricks. Age, voltage, load test.
02Tires — weight and instant torqueRotate on the interval. Door-sticker PSI. EV-rated rubber if that is what it left with.
03Brakes rust from regen — fluid still agesPads may last a long time and still glaze. Brake fluid is years, not miles.
04Cabin filter still existsSame glove-box job. Show the old one.
05Coolant loops are not 'no service'Battery / inverter loops use a specific coolant. A general shop may not have it.
