then you can do it yourself. I was afraid at first but it is really simple...really simple....I don't know why they cost so much at the shop.
Unscrew the drain plug, drain the oil, remove the filter, replace the plug, put in a new filter, fill the engine back up with oil.
If you take it to the quicky lube place, make sure, and watch them if needed, that they use synthetic (if that's what you use in your car)...I had to stop someone as they where going to pump conventional oil in the engine, even though the work ticket clearly said synthetic. Let's face it, some of those shops don't employ the brightest people (not all the stores though).
