Oil Changes - Where do you get yours?
#31
That's my take. Working on customer cars pretty much got me to the point, that I hated working on my stuff. I have barely turned a wrench since I left Ft Worth.

As long as my arms work, I'll do it myself.
The part highlighted in bold speaks for itself. If you can't do it, how can they?
Total BS.......
Well I would berky but I dont feel comfortable doing it myself. I know how to check all the fluids in my car and change a tire but changing my own oil is something I have never done. I think $10.00 dollars is a good price to get it changed by a professional that knows what they are doing. You cant buy the supplies needed to do a oil change yourself for less than ten.
Well they said if I change the oil myself then I have to keep the receipt showing when I bought the supplys. I have to show this to them when I take the car in for service. Since I'm changing it myself there would be no sticker on the windshield showing when it was changed last.
I dont know if this was true or not. I dont really want to test the theory that it isnt, LOL. I love my warranty!

Another reason I visit the dealer is because I cannot reset my oil life indicator. I've tried three pushes of the gas pedal, and using the buttons on the steering wheel. Neither method works. The service manager and the technician (whom I trust implicitly) have told me that the oil life can only be reset with the analyzer gizmo that hooks up to the computer.
So... i visit the dealer.

I do my own on the SS, costs about $35 now that oil has gone up in price. Used to be 10 bucks cheaper. The only issue I have is my ramps are too steep and the spoiler doesn't clear. I've been using wood but it's time to find a better solution.
I really love how easy the oil change is, I have a Masters in Music and don't "turn a wrench" very easily. This is cake, even for a novice.
