The title got me my redneck friend Don't know how to top that for attention material!

I'm interested in how it works for you. I have always had the magnetic plug in the oil pan as a means of aid in my Corvairs.

For the HHR the dealer has the Free" oil Changes for life " thing going, so I'nm lazy and they want to try to sell me more service or a new car, I'm sure!
Things can be financially safer in your driveway.

Hope it works for ya. I'll stick to draining, crap goes to the bottom of the pan. Sucking won't get that all out.

My back never hurts from an oil change. I only have a little pain in my hand as I write the check to the dealer. $33 includes oil and filter!

Your back will definately like it.
I am glad the surgery went well for you.If this current series of epidurals that I am getting don't do the trick,I am afraid that surgery will be my next option. Speaking of suck,it sucks to get old too. I think my current back problems are partially due to my exploits when I was younger.You know,the ones that were always preceded by "hey,watch this"!

Its ok for the Oil but the Trans is a seal unit there is no Dip stick for the Trans I was told that you have to go to the Dealership for the Trans fuild to be changed, My HHr was in the Body shop Once and they had to take it to the Dealership for the Trans Fuild.
