Time to save some money, hassles, and time and start doing it yourself.

I find its cheaper and way faster to just get a small oil change setup and do the changes myself. The wife thinks I'm crazy of course (until I do hers for her as well), but I put in better oil and use filter magnets and stuff. The big thing is that by the time I could get down to jiffy lube or the dealer, I can have done my own about 3 times. (I buy oil in bulk when it goes on sale to save additional money and time).

Just an idea

That royal purple stuff and K/N filters seem to review well around here.
