I let the Mobil 1 lube joint change mine ONCE. When the dork checked the oil level with the dip stick, he let oil drip all over my fuel rail cover, even after saying how clean it was. Now I do my own.

The timing usually works out when I need something done to my Vette.

Jiffy Lube. My local jiffy Lube has a complete stock of mobil 1 and they use Fram filters. the change costs $60. the nuce thing is I get to stand right their with the guys while they service the car. when it comes to Vettes they are especially careful and the supervisor must check the oil and sign off on the car before it leaves the shop.

I do. Put the car on the Kwiklift, jack the rear end up some to aid draining and you are good to go.
