Default Re: Servicing engine oil and filter.

Just had the oil and filter changed by the local indy import shop. I was set to do it myself ... have a pump and everything, but we have a delusional neighbor who's been on a tear recently, so to avoid yet another complaint to the management company about, "running a business from the home," or, "unauthorized auto repair shop," or whatever.
For reasons known only to the shop, they didn't order the oil or filter, so I brought them mine. Mobil 1 Euro Spec, 0W40, and Mann filter. Saved a few dollars, and while they had the car they checked for engine codes (they still have the older OBD readers as well as a newer reader), measured brake linings, checked tire wear and pressure, and did a general overall visual. Freya just hit 30K, so she's aging well and appreciates the proper service and maintenance. Runs like a dream, smiles for miles.
