    Default Evo oil change

    I need to get the oil changed on my EVO. I live in a condo building so doing it myself isn't possible. I would just go to TopSpeed but I'm sure they're booked up. Anyone know of / work at a local shop that has an opening tomorrow? There's no f'n way I'm taking it to a dealership with the stories I've heard.

    Thanks.

    Do it yourself. It takes about 15 minutes. Can you not just jack the car up in the parking lot? Hell, you could actually do it in an autozone parking lot. They don't care.

    All my buddies live in fancy poo houses, if I spilled any oil on their driveways it would be hell to pay from their wives.

    Where do you live? If you use a oil drain pan and a iece of cardboard you should be ok. If you're not far you can come to my house and do it. Hell, i even have the oil filter and crush washer.

    I live in an apt complex thats labeled "luxory apartment complex"... and almost every big black stain in a certain 2-3 parking spots are from one of my cars. My apt complex don't complain, but sometimes fat bitchy ladies who live adjacent to me do. Shouldn't be a problem doing it in your own parking lot.

    If you haven't changed your tranny fluid forever, it may be a good idea to pick up 3qts of Penzoil Synchromesh and change it out too... you'll notice a nice difference after 100~500miles.

    Thanks for the offers, I found a spot. I need to get a house, I'm tired of not being able to do my own car shit at home.
