Where is the cheapest yet a good automobile garage to change the oil and filter for my 1999 Pontiac?

Is Kwik Kar good? I just read a complaint about the place here: http://www.complaints.com/directory/2005/june/4/21.htm





Please give me your opinion,


Thanks :)Where is the cheapest yet a good automobile garage to change the oil and filter for my 1999 Pontiac?
If you are not mechanically inclined, do not change your own oil. Simple as that. Take it to the dealership. It's only gonna cost about $30-$40. Your cars engine is the last thing you wanna skimp on so do not take it to those discount independent shops. If you end up paying less than $25.00 for an oil change you went wrong.Where is the cheapest yet a good automobile garage to change the oil and filter for my 1999 Pontiac?
the cheapest and best place to do it on a car like this is the garage outside your own home, or in your driveway.





this is an exceedingly easy job that even someone with little to no experience can do for half the cost or less than someone at one of these easy lube places can do it.





if you go to your local library, they probably even have the manual for this model in their automotive section, or at least a generic version that can take you through the steps:





1) drain the old oil from the pan.





2) unscrew and remove the old filter.





3) screw on the new filter





4) fill with the required amount of oil - usually 4 quarts





that simple, that easy





30 minutes at most for a rank amateur on their first time.
Your personal garage would be the cheapest ( about $10.00 ). Most oil change places are fine including Kwik Kar. They do hundreds and hundreds of oil changes every day so if you hear that the drain plug was loose or they didn't put oil in my car it's probably the one out of 10,000 that was a human error ( it's gonna happen! ). With that many oil changes ( EVERY SINGLE DAY ) there's going to be mistakes. Best bet is to do it yourself that way there's nobody to blame and it's much cheaper.
I change my own oil and dispose of it, but I read the complaint and would advise you not to go there. Call around, talk to your friends. A lot of times someone has a favorite place they go and it may not cost too much.
