Time to do some work: Is this ok?

FWIW, I don't know why you'd change the oil yourself on a new car, when the dealer charges $22 to do it for you.
I change the oil on my old cars, but not the new ones. Filters too damn hard to get off...

But since I value my warranty, I let them put in whatever they say is best. For now...

as far as motor functions and engine oil yes. yes it is. they do use aeroshell oil though because anything that has a function in the plane needs to be FAA certified. and its not me im saying is superior at all, its the strict guidlines and testings in aviation that are superior to automotive. yeesh. and u can pick up the 5 qt jug of mobil 1 fully synthetic for like 15 bucks at wal mart FYI

not in VA. $22 at least. castrol is $15. lol i usually get my mobil from my uncle because evry time he drives my car he drives it WAY harder then i would and i make him buy me mobil for it lol. not like it helps, or that it even did any damage, but i can usually guilt him into it.
and the supior thing was a joke... i understood what you meant.

I had a good friend who managed a Jiffy Lube for a while. He had a new story each week of how the kids at his shop screwed another customer's car up. He recommended not ever going there.

I had to take my z31 to Iffy Lube once when i had nowhere to do it myself. i told them to ONLY do the oil. don't touch anything else, even if it is on your silly little list of crap to do. well, sure enough, they ignored me. i got about 10 miles down the freeway, and started overheating. pulled off at a gas station and steam is pouring out from my radiator. the morons had taken the cap off, and when they put it back on, they didn't tighten it, just set it in the hole. Iffy Lube can kiss my ***.

My old roommate worked at Iffy lube. He drove a Audi TT into the pit. Took 2 tow trucks and a cutting torch to get it out. That owner was pissed.
