2 free oil changes

Evolvedx27 · 04-02-2017, 11:57 PM

Is it possible to have dealer give you the oil and filter and change the oil yourself? I don't trust them.

Nope.

Oil, Filter, and service is part of the plan...done by dealer technicians.

Since many brands offer this now, I have asked multiple dealers for several different brands. They will not give you the oil and filters. Basically they want you to use their service department, hoping that you like it and will keep coming back.

I, unfortunately, have had too many bad experiences and will only take my car to service if I absolutely must...there are some good mechanics, but just too many bad ones. And typically they do not let you pick your mechanic or if they do, they will do things to deter you like saying they have a long line already for that person and the wait will be twice or three times as long....~sigh~.

Yea called 2 of the closest dealers to me. No go. I'm gonna go to a very nice dealership about 45 min. From me. I'm gonna ask for their "A" tech and throw him 20 bucks personally to do the job at my expectations. Doing engine oil, and rear diff.
