Yeah, but that's a huge pain too. My service guy is 80 miles away. Working out the logistics of getting the car there, and then picking it up again (and not rushing the guy) sucks. That's why I'm trying to do the oil change myself (for the first time). The last time, I took it to a shop that's only 42 miles away (that has a good rep). They seemed to do a good job, except that now I've got this plug that I'm worried about removing, and I'm not sure if it's just one of those things or due to something that the last guys did (I don't trust most mechanics any further than I could throw one).
