theres a lil more than that. i got 3 main points i want to get at.Originally Posted by gtikid
1. how do u know u are getting the right oil for your car and or what u even paid for. most places oil pumps arent labeled the person putting the oil in just has to know which 1 is which. thats just going on my personal experience working for places like that back in the day.
2. is how do u know that they didnt cross thread your filter. just got it tight enough to seal and not leak for now. ive seen that done.
3. the oil pan bolt u know how many oil change spots really change the crush washer let along give a fuck if the bolt goes in or comes out cross threaded. i worked at 1 shop the bolt came out cross threaded told the boss. he told me to put it back in and make it work.
point being get off your ass and change your own oil. dont be lazy an take it to these we dont give a fuck shops with high school kids making 6.50 an hour who dont give a flying fuck about anything because its a throw away job to them.

Not all of us have time to feel like a "real man". I'd rather take it to a shop that i've been going to for years, that are up right and honest and friends of the family and be in and out in under 10 minutes and pay $10 for them to change my oil, with the oil and filter that I provided. Is my time worth $10? I think so...
