Hey most Mr. Lube locations are the best places to go. . .

i don't do my own oil changes even though i know how to, i just take it to Honda....really don't have enough time for it really. . .and i trust my honda dealership, cause 3 of my friends work there.....so i get them to change the oil. . .lol

I get my mechanic to do it. I supply the synthetic oil, he supplies the filter and I supply him with some cash too! We all win in the end!

I never did it. I go to my friend's shop and I get to stand beside my car while they work on it. I do think I know the process after seeing it enough times, but I don't want to do it. For one, I don't have enough tools, and second, I can afford it so why not.

I use Motul 300V 5W40

Does it cost to dispose of it at the dump? I've never gone to a dump in the city before.

I get my done @ my shop. I seen some DIY jobs and its all not funny(e.g. loose drain plug, filter not tight, drain plug bolt stripped). Anyways, most of the stuff I get my mechanic too follow up on. Oh yeah, the oil(s) are:

Motul 8100 and Motul 300V
