    Hi,

    I was wondering if any of you know of and can recommend a company that serves the LA area who will come to your house to change the oil in your car?

    I'm currently not driving my Ferrari, and thus would love to have the service provider come to me rather than vice versa.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Matt

    Why not wait until you start driving it again, and then take it to your preferred service place and have them change the oil?

    It's good to change the oil periodically even if you're not driving the car

    Even better to drive the car so seals don't dry up and start leaking :) Sorry, don't know of any mobile service - maybe have it flat bedded to service...

    I may have someone that can do it. But unfortunately he is in SD. Sometimes he does go up to LA though.

    Very simple process for a 308. Just did my 328 and will be doing my 355 over the Memorial Day Weekend.

    I'm in Sherman Oaks. Welcome to come over on the 27th if you want me to walk you through the process while I do mine and drink a few beers. Of course you would have to drive your car there.

    Walmart Online currently has Mobile One in the 5 qt jugs for $23. That's as low as I have ever seen and they ship to your house for free. Just need that, a filter and the crush washer. You can order on line from Ricambi and get you FChat 10% discount or pick up at the dealer with your 10% FCA discount (if you are a member).

    I may have someone (Ferrari factory trained) willing to come to your house if you don't want to do the above.What parta do you live in?

    Spoke to the tech. He will come to your house with the oil and filter and do the service for $200 with Mobil One Synthetic. PM me for contact.

    First, I appreciate the invitation to join you for an oil change! I'm not keen on driving my car at the moment though, otherwise I'd take you up on your offer.

    Second, it's great to hear you have a tech in mind. I'll respond to your PM. Thanks!
