Dealership Quick Lube for Oil Changes?

[zl1diavolo]

Has anyone had their dealership quick lube department do their oil changes?

I ask because I am just about ready to hit the magical 1500 mile mark. Since I have the free 2 year maintenance program I thought I would save the money and have the dealer do it. Here is where it goes south. I call my service department, who have been fantastic up to this point, and tell them I need to set an appointment for an oil change. I was disappointed when he transferred me to quick lube. In typical fashion of any quick lube employee the guy just worries me. So I ask if they are familiar with the ZL1. The guy says "yea....we do the 1's, the 2's, the 3's".

So I guess I am changing my own oil!

Typical that they don't do the 4's

he's probably screwing with you and laughing on the floor.

My dealership does all their own oil changes.

Our cars aren't so exotic that an oil change requires a deviation of any significance from a standard camaro, I believe.
