So I show up and you will give me 10qts oil and show me how to check my oil? I guess me and the GF will show up. So have my 15qts and 2 filters ready.

Can I just come get oil and leave?
I only run Mobil 1 but if you give me some of your stuff for free I may consider purchasing it.

I registered, this is my usual Autozone, only 5 min from the house and the wifey's Tahoe is due for an OC. I usually run only Mobil1, so I hope the giveaway oil is the new synthetic in question. 5/1/2014 1:54:41 PM |

Fuck that shit. Even jiffy lube is liable if they fuck up my expensive ass engine.
[Edited on May 2, 2014 at 9:53 PM. Reason : no such thing as a free oil change]

if they fuck up a oil change. I'm not letting them change my oil, they can just give me 10 qts 10w 30 full synthetic and I'll go test it out myself.
Lift car, remove bolt & filter, put bolt and filter back, pour in oil. 5/3/2014 7:10:47 AM |

Jiffy Lube is getting paid for their services and has plenty of profit/insurance to cover their fuckups. What could they possibly hurt if you watch them drain and fill the oil? A stripped drain plug maybe? You can always check the level yourself before driving. That's good practice even if the place covers repairs.

Damn...You really should have gone by there.

Umm...
I got a 6.0 Superduty a few months back
I needed four doors and got a smoking deal on one. Sold the Dodge to a guy in Buffalo NY who was thrilled to find a rust free truck. 5/5/2014 10:40:31 PM |
