says who? Ive got receipts and blackstone labs oil reports for every change the car has had since new. oil changes aren't rocket science I'd be shocked if that's really a requirement warranty wise.

If you have trust issues with your dealership, time to find a new one to deal with.

I'm lucky enough to have a mechanic shop down the road that charges 12$ to rent a 4 post lift for oil changes. drive on, drain, fill and Im out......they even dispose of old filter and oil. Pair that with I buy my filters and oil in bulk when its on sale and every change is under $100 and takes a half hour if i really take my time. I also actually really trust the dealer (perfomance manager is a zl1 1le guy and prob on here) but still just would just rather do it myself.
