    sucks for that guy, I get a lift and it only costs me $7 bucks for oil and filter, haha

    edit:plus I have a buddy that I have watched change oil at one of these places, Here the persedure, fill coolant and windhield washer fluid, raise in the air, let oil start drainging out, replace filter put plug back in no matter how much has come out, let down, dump how ever much computor says to the add another half quart and shut hood, do not trust guys at quick lube places

    hey i work for an oil change place.. i dunno where he went but it wasnt there. yes we add what the computer says but then check it, if its off, add accordingly. the car gets drained until dripping before the filter is even touched. oh and spellcheck ftw..
