I'm looking to chg oil myself........
Welcome and drive it fast, but avoid the tickets!!!
Changing the oil yourself is very easy, especially if you have an oil evacuator. I suck it out of the dipstick no problem. Also, these cars are easy to change the filters. Right up front and on top of the engine. Just make sure you get a Mann or appropriately qualified filter and put the insert in properly. Use Mobil one fully synthetic. Get it on sale. Saves a lot of money and time doing it yourself.
Enjoy the ride.
