That free first oil change...

TongMan · 06-14-2010, 08:38 AM

I was wondering if I can go into another dealership to get my free first oil change, other than the dealership that I bought my car from?

The dealership where I bought my Z from is pretty far from where I live. I hope the Nissan dealerships near me will acknowledge the free first oil change.

I was in same situation, I had to pay. Although I didn't push the issue that hard so, idk.

Yea I don't you can. Just had mine done on saturday. He said the first oil change was paid by the sales department when buying the vehicle.

Dang! How much did it cost you to get an oil change from the dealership? I remember the finance guy was telling me that it cost $149 for every oil change and was pushing the "Maintenance Package" on me.

hahahaha.... if it costs 149 each time you get an oil change then Id be running to trade the car in. As thats just CRRAAAZZYY! Id also be changing the oil every 20k miles instead of 5-7500k like it says lol.

$149?! Lol

TongMan · 06-14-2010, 06:08 PM

Yea it was pretty funny listening to him talk about how much money I'd save by purchasing the "Maintenance Package". When I told him that I may just do the oil changes myself, he replied that I could not do it as the transmission was "sealed" from the factory. I gave him a weird look and then denied to purchase the "Maintenance Package".

Oil change was 29.99.

It's not actually too bad. I am getting used to it. Takes me 5 minute (if that). I like the fact my engine is protected from debris and rocks from underneath with this plastic cover. :twocents)

murphman · 06-27-2010, 08:42 PM

I'm sure its not $149 for an oil change but if they tried to get you to pay that much i wouldnt be suprised. I use to have a Cadillac CTS and it was being serviced I asked how much it costs to get the brakes done and he quoted over $600 dollars. Im sure they draind the brake fuild and all but still... cmon man. But yeah the only reason i dont change my oil myself like AK and a lot of people is cause i happen to get a free year of changes.
