Where do you go to get your oil changed?

This is almost as bad as the manual vs automatic trans BS. I know the guy who does my oil changes, it's been the same guy for like 4 years.

I know the guy who does my oil changes, it's been the same guy for like 4 years. I don't care if he's ASE certified or not, as long as he does a good job. Why would I? As everyone has already said, "It's not rocket science."

I feel sorry for you guys doing it because you have bad dealer service centers you can't trust to do it right, and even worse for the ones who think it makes them manly man car dudes to drain and replace oil. The ones who are doing it because they enjoy it? Good for you.

for me personally, it has nothing to do with manliness. its only about whether it was done and done right and without of the worries.
