Does anyone here change their own oil?

well if you do and you use mobil 1 synthethic let me know.

I have 14 cupons good for $14 per case (6 quarts) of mobil 1 synthethic from Pep Boys.

I am probably gonna buy 10 cases (for the price of 5) because between me and roger there is an oil change every week in my garage. Well if anyone wants details or anything let me know.

Oh and for those of you who dont know mobil 1 synthetic is Shell Helix in a grey bottle

 

Thats a great price. I'd be interested.

 

Me, too. It's time for an oil change and the 400i takes 19 quarts! Mobil 1 15W-50

Well, no F car here but I certainly would be interested in how you got the deal! I only use 15w-50 and wouldn't think about putting anything other than Mobil 1 in my car. 170 miles and still going. Although it is time to rebuild the turbo.

 

I was about to change the oil on my X5 tomorrow let me know if the offer is still avaliable.

 

big secret is at pep boys They are selling calanders at the counter for $1 each. Proceeds go to MADD (mothers against drunk driving) in the center of the calander there are cupons, you get a bunch of free stuff. car wash, rain-x, etc. But the main cupon in my eyes is the mobil 1 syn buy 3 get 3 free. in other words cases are half price. So go to your local pep boys and see if they have any calanders, if thats the case pick a bunch up. if not, i'll have a few extra at the end of the week to ship out to you guys. cupons dont expire till Dec 31

 

Thanks Rob will try to stop by local PEP Boys tonight

 

plaYa gots dem hookups!

 

NICE! Thanks for the info.

 

I'd be interested. 5-50 is good for me. Actually recommended by parts guy at a dealer for a 308.

 

I've always changed the oil in my cherokees. Did it a couple of times in my 308, and did my TR last time. For the cherokee, I use 10-30 synthetic blend. All my F-cars got Mobil 1, 15-50. It's pretty hard to beat Wal-Mart's prices, last time I bought Mobil 1 there it cost $19.82 for a 5 quart jug. Last oil change on TR cost me about $90 ($20 to Noroton Citgo for using the lift and rolling drain bucket).
Good for looking out for fellow EC homies!! Thanxxx Rob!!

 

No doubt thats a great deal. Im just not willing to switch to synthetic on my old motor at this point. I know its premium stuff, but Ive heard bad stories abt using it on older engines as it tends to weep/leak more easily.

thanks for sharing Rob!

 

Greg, don't buy that BS on old engines leaking more. Put it in and take advantage of synthetic oil.

 

I disagree. My 308 was running dino. a repair shop droped in synthetic & the leaks started within a week. all cars? no. but be warned.

 

Mmmm alot lot better than the $6 a quart RPM racing charged me, next time I'll bring my own, I'm going to stock up, 20 quarts should be good for 2 oil changes.
