Curious, how much does your local Toyota charge for oil change service?

Better check your transmission fluid level. Tech got confused and drained the transmission pan.

 

Moral of the story is don't leave anything in your truck that isn't bolted down.

 

$14. They cant be using good oil.

 

Yep, there's no telling how many people pay extra for synthetic only to roll out of there with cheap conventional oil.

I change my own, that way I KNOW what's in it.

 

What a dumb-ass!

It's reasons such as this, as to why I basically do all the maintenance myself on my Tacoma. "IF" I happen to "fuckup" then it's all on me. No way I'm letting some dumb-shit tech fuck up a basic elementary oil change on my truck.

Just earlier today I changed the oil, oil filter, cabin filter and engine filter on my 2008 Tacoma and yes I "always double check" myself afterwards.

Though believe me I've heard several horrific oil change stories told by other individuals, like how they really didn't change the oil!.....or did not actually change the oil filter!....put in the wrong oil weight, type, etc.!.......left the oil pan drain plug loose!.....put in the wrong oil filter!....putting in too much oil!.....etc., etc.

This does not just happen at dealerships, this also happens at those quick lube oil change places too, so keep that in mind.

 

I use local mom and pop owned shops to help with local small town revenue. The more local revenue, the less likely local taxes will go up. Food for thought.

 

Currently eating all the cookies at the dealership while they change my oil.

 

Yeah oil change and diabetes at one stop!!!
