$180 w/ PCA discount at Fletcher Jones of Fremont. And it's not only an oil change as I always trust them to inspect the car.

I paid $150 in the spring for the annual oil change at Northtown Porsche in Buffalo NY. $400 is a bit excessive I would say.

I pay Toyota $35 four times a year = $140/yr for oil changes on my truck

& I only avg one oil change a year for the P-car @ $150-180, so I dont think its that bad...

IMO

Get the Screw on adapter kit from LN engineering (see the post "OCD oil Change on the Red Dragon"). It uses a napa filter for a late model corvette that any oil change place will have. With the extra oil......$60.

I went to Roslyn. Unfortunately Roslyn is less than 10 min for me while Huntington is about 40 mins. So save $100 but cost me extra hour in commute... Duh!

you pay as much as oil costs plus shipping. well, considering mods - LN filter adapter was 130 or so, but now it will be easier.

engine runs way smoother on new oil. it is very simple DIY job.
