Alternatively, you could get your oil changed at Jiffy Lube, where you might still have an oil cap not be put on the engine, but it's because they changed your oil in less than ten minutes rather than because they were too ****ing stupid to add two minutes to the time it took to finish your car at the dealership. Oh, and I've worked at the J for a while now, and I've only had one car (Out of literally hundreds and hundreds) claim we left their oil cap off. We paid to clean the engine block and bay and offered her free oil changes. She still had oil half way through the crosshatches on her dipstick...this was after a 1,200 mile trip too.

PS: Most Jiffy Lube's really don't care if you watch us do the work. It gives us a chance to prove we do things right. Though, before you question us, make sure you have an understanding of how your car works. They don't call it a 2.0 Liter "V-4" because it takes "Two Liters of Oil."


Why should I pay almost 40 dollars for an oil change at jiffy lube, when everyone else around me does it for less than 25? I honestly dont understand how the one by my house manages to stay open, it is almost always empty

I have a shop by me that is very honest and does great work that changes the oil in my truck for 20. And there is a Quick Lane at the dealership that does oil in my wife's car (we got a coupon book when we bought the car and I have yet to pay for an oil change in the past three years, plus i got about 2 more years worth of coupons )
