I know, depends on car (C900 here). Can recall one instance shop changed the oil. Otherwise since a little kid this was a fun little project, more convenient, and cheaper. Dino e.g. take store filter & choice of oil = $9 and 5-10min time, vs. quickie shop/dealer $20 minimum for mystery filter & oil and 1/2hr sitting in shop plus transit time to/from - forgetaboutit :o) Now w/ synthetic change interval, even more convenient for DIY. Only prob could be oil disposal, but even if no recycler in area some shops will take it (even law in some places I think). Anyway, gives a guy a chance to poke around the car looking for trouble or just admire it.
