So I've read through the whole process a couple of times, and what I still need to get is an oil filter wrench, a drain pan, and possible something to get the oil drain plug off. I'd need to purchase a new filter too and ive seen anywhere from 4-6 quarts of oil. Could anyone tell me a rough estimate of these costs? |

it all depends on the person..
its actually more convient to do the oil change my self.. i can change the oil in my car in about 30 mins.. and it take me atleast 30min to drive to an oil change station. and the oil you get for 12 bucks is really low quality. |
