pleae never take your care to EZ lube, they just got busted by the government. They cant do anything but oil changes for 5 days, nation wide. They have to install cameras so customers can see that the work gets done. They were caught F people out of money and not even doing the work! Atleast try a place like oil can henrys, there decent. I think that a CA thing though

The intervals they give you between changes kind of justifies the high charge. Still I'm not totally comfy with the intervals they suggest.

I pay $43 at the dealer, but they wash it, which normally costs me $13, they always have fresh food in the morning, good coffee, and an internet room, plus the guy that drives the car wears gloves and clean clothes. I can't stand those mechanics with oliy hands and outfits getting into my car and charging me $28 for an oil change.

What the fvck, are you guys quoting prices for synthetic or regular? Because I just called Cerritos Infiniti for a quote and he says "let me add it up" and gives me $69.95 basically $70! I guess he sensed my shock and said "oh yeah and it includes a car wash" Anyways I can't imagine it being $40 synthetic at a dealership.. that's pretty low

I'm think a lot of you have read about those "shop nights" that Autobarn Nissan have for our group in the Chicago area? They charge us $15.00 for an oil change!! Plus they only charge us 10% above cost on parts. They are so good to us. If you didn't read my post about how amazing this place is to us check it out, you won't believe it.

$40 at infiniti of annapolis. i do it mostly for documentation of maintenance and also for the convenience of not having to lug used oil to a collection station. price seems very reasonable compared to the $42 i paid at jiffy lube to have the oil changed in my explorer.
