based on the YEAR/MAKE/MODEL.

Wal Mart has done me good service for many years and I never once had to return with a complaint. and I did check there work, $18.00 basic oil.

&gt,&gt,&gt,JIFFY LUBE "OR" ANY fast oil change shops.DONT GO THERE. they'll sale you stuff you don't really need, and on occasion do the basic work half fast. don't GO THER&lt,&lt,&lt,

MAybe a friend or family member can do this for you, you will save money and still be able to give a little someting for the work done.

you should pay about twelve bucks but most probably must pay about 25. wal mart does it for about 17 with no bells and whistles

under $30 at Jiffy Lube, if your top is a little lower and you don’t have panties on wearing a mini skirt it is free.

FYI&gt,&gt, At different times, I took a car to Jiffy lube. It ran good before. After, it started rattling and made all types of noises. When I took them to another shop, I I was told they put cheap oil in my car. The oil has been changed free at ajiffylube, but I never went back. you may be able to look in your Sunday paper and get oil change and tire rotation free or vise versa. I typically take it to a reputable place like Firestone or Goodyear.

giving a woman's opinion "fast oil change places" are in it for fast money so they tend to sell more to you, take a friend with you that may know about cars to keep you from feelin like you're needing other services. also in your holders manuel if you have one for your car it'll give you a run down of what is supposed to be done at what mileage to prevent them from selling maintenances to you that aren't needed. but based on car and kind of oil change you're to get from 15.00 to 40.00 be sure your to get what is suggested for your car that's what is important not the cost.
