I've always changed my own oil mostly because like nearly everyone else, I enjoy it and I know it's done right.

 

I change my also.
Don't like anyone working on my truck.

 

I change myhown because of the AMSOIL synthetic. If you take it somewhere and they screw it up or put the wrong stuff in it, they will put it back on you by some statement that it is the customers responsibility to notify them of special requirements.

OH and it cost between 70 and 100 to have someone put dino oil in it with a stock filter. For that much I can put the AMSOIL in it and only change the oil every 30,000 miles. Change the filters at 10,000 for the full flow and 20,000 for both. At 30,000 I send in the oil sample and wait for the results. IF it comes back OK. I change the OIL at 40,000 with both filters.

 

i change my own, it was like 60 dollars to have it changed when u have a shop do it

 

I change my own , Only trust my self

 

wish i could trust myself haha, but i can at least point the finger at someone when i do my own when the engine goes boom haha

 

I don't change my oil anymore, everything has synthetic now, truck has had it in there for a year ( but would probably still be within the oil change interval anyways ) , and the jeep , who cares , it's just a 4L, they last forever with cheap dino oil.


my OTR company truck , i told them to just change the filter for me , it seems to "use" ( leak? burn? i have no idea) enough that it has had a complete change by the time the milage comes around anyways

 

I like changing my own oil. It's enough time for at least a six pack!

 

i change my own oil on everything but my truck... i take it to the stealership quick lube but they know me and let me drive it in and stand there watch them and i tell them if they are doin something i dont like plus they check everything underneath... but it cost 122 bucks
