Which code does this activity belong in?
Establishments primarily engaged in changing motor oil and lubricating vehicle chassis fall within this code, which focuses narrowly on these two activities. Car washes that clean and detail vehicles are classified separately in automotive car wash establishments. Other maintenance services such as air-conditioning repair, tire repair, and rustproofing belong in the broader category of all other automotive repair and maintenance, which excludes oil change and lubrication activities.
