Everyone with oil temp issues

ZKindaGuy

I read some post on another Z board where a guy was only charged $59.95 for the Nissan Ester oil change. The next lowest price I read was $79.95 and then another for $99.99. After that the majority of folks were reporting
$120+ for teh oil change.

I haven't yet had to pay for mine as my first oil change was free. They put SYNTH in first despite my asking for their Ester oil. The service manager came into the waiting area and said his technician made a mistake. He had the technician drain the new SYNTH out and refill with teh Ester oil I asked for when I came in for service.

I thought it was interesting that the service manageer didn't try at all to persuade me that the SYNTH the tech wrongly put in was alright and sufficient. He actually was adamant about ordering the drain and refill with the Ester oil. I am interpreting this as a possible indication that the Ester oil is not as expensive as they make it out to be since he didn't seem to care about wasting the SYNTH.

It will be interesting to see what I get charged when I go in for my next oil change. May be awhile however before I find out since my car is a garage queen.
