DIY. Even if you don't have the tools, buying them will only set you back the cost of a few oil changes at the dealer. I recommend Harbor Freight for cheap tools with a lifetime warranty (great for one-use tools). I try to get nicer/higher quality tools if they are used more frequently.

I pick up Mobil 1 at Walmart ONLY because it's $25 for 5 quarts. With a not too expensive oil filter, my oil changes cost me about $35 and 30 minutes of my time.

Get yourself a new crush washer for the drain plug from the dealership (or you can find them on eBay or other online retailers).
