Why I should change my oil myself

yea but some companies do half butt jobs and the car ends up in a bad condition.

Filter = 3.00 -5.00
oil = 5.00
Washer - 1.00

then the oil disposal, and most important time.

25.00 for a good oil change is well worth it to me. MY time is worth wayyy
more than that ...

I've done all my own oil changes for you-don't-want-to-know-how-many years. I try to do all the maintenance I can.

It's a zen kinda thing with your car. :turn-l:

BTW- I switch to M1 after 1K, and have been since 1982. Hasn't killed a motor yet - but I'll research it if there's evidence that I should be doing it later.
