Well I sure hope you watxh them. On a 4600 mile rip last month I had to let someone change my oil. But I stood way back and watched in spite of the fact that they tried to seat me in a nice room and as they typed all the information into the computer they told me how great a job they always do.
I manage d to be watching when the guy down in the pits was having a hard time getting the filter started on. He set it down on its gasket aand climbed up higher then tried again, still having problems he slammed it down on the floor gasket down. At this point I came much closer and pointed out to the manager that you couldn't treat a filter like that. So they did get a new filter out and use that.
The drove the car out of the bay next door with out checking for leaks and had to get the lady back out of it and put it over the pit again.
And as far as teh price they charge 36.00 for an oil and filter but because I specified a syn blend there was 20.00 dollar sur charge so it came to 56.00 plus tax for what I can do for under 15.00 most days.
56.00 for a 5 quart oil change and filter with some of the worst work I have ever seen done.The last time I had tried to use one of the quick change places they clamed the drain plug was stuck and I had to sign a waver because they could tear the whole pan off thrying to get it out. I drove home and changed it with no problem at all.
I would really like to hire more of my work done but have a hard time finding anyone you can trust to do it..
