Thinking that I could save $30 on a synthetic oil Change by going to Walmart turned out to be a bust. The local mom and pop car shop that changes oil does the alingnment and stuff like that charged $85 for mobile one synthetic and oil filter. Long story short Walmart changed the oil for $20 more than they said (not happy about that) then on top of that they get oil all over the drivers seat and the outside of my truck. walmart is paying for it to be cleaned and they reimbursed me but I'm still upset i spent 3 hours just to get my oil changed. Lesson learned

 

That sucks. Try to save a few $$ and get a headache. How did they explain getting oil all over the truck?

 

"Ayy man it wasn't me". The man with oil marks on his back

Where's this WalMart at?

 

Glad I bought motorcraft "synthetic" and did it all myself...only spent $40 and that's including a case of beer...actually my first time doing my own oil...taking the filter off isn't as bad as I thought it was

 

You could of taken it to the local high school and got better service and prices. I would never ever ever let Walmart get near my truck.

 

It's in Houston. I think I might do it myself next time. It will be a while before I have to again

 

Oh, good ole wal mart! Ill add that to my enormous list of reasons I will not spend my money there.

 

ive done my own oil changes. use mobil1 extended performance. normally it is about 9.25 per quart and the filter is like 18.00 at autozone. i just wait until they have their deal of 5qts and filter for $35....lol i get 7qts each time and the extended performance filter so it cost me like $60 instead of 90ish but thats what i pay for 10k miles of driving and not having to change my oil when its 2 degrees F outside....

 

I just watched the vid....that sucks man...glad they are taking care of it tho.

 

Jeez that bites....sorry to hear that

I do mine for approx $23......6 quarts mc 5w20 semi syn with the mc filter also.....

 

That's a lot on the seat.

 

I'm lucky. Same local guys working at the same WalMart since the doors opened. Bought all
my tires there and all my oil changes for the past 20 years. Nice group of guys,and not
just to me. Just plain folks trying to pay bills like everybody else. To bad other places are
different.

 

been doing oil changes for as long as i could get that plug out of the oil pan! I'm the person who everyone brings their car to get the oil changed on.
