Valvoline Instant oil Change

Customer appreciation Day/Weekend?

$19.99 standard oil change.

Got mine. Thought I'd share this.

Now that I have thought about it I am guessing it should be instant?

Oil change should not be rushed. But so many quik change joints can't wait to plug the pan & re-fill..

I like doing my own.. So easy even a caveman could do it..

I'm with ya, except I've gotten to the point I don't like crawling under cars anymore so I take mine to the dealer. I had one of those quick lube places strip my drain plug on one of my other cars and it was a battle to get them to make it right so I steer away from them.

I don't trust any of those quik lube joints.. Bummer about yer oil plug getting stripped.

On our hhrs' the cast aluminum oil pans would strip before a drain plug.. OUCH $$$ ...
