DFW Locals...Where do you get your oil changed?

Just curious where you guys get your oil changed and what prices everyone pays. We all have to do it (mine is due next month) and threads like these often prove very helpful

OK, I made a few calls and here's what I have come up with so far. These prices are for a 2001 996 C2 3.4L:
RUF - $155
Eurosport - $120
Boardwalk - $190
Park Place - $193

Anyone else want to chime in with prices?

Can you qualifiy the quotes as using OEM or better filter/fluids?

I can tell you Autoscope - Lovefield is $25 + parts ( OEM, aftermarket, etc, your choice ) so depending on your preference, it can be less expensive.

RUF and Eurosport were using Mobil 1. I assume Boardwalk uses "OEM" fluids and I believe Park Place was using concrete mix

Yep. The Porsche Drive I put together a few weeks ago to the 4 Winds was my last "event" for PPP. I actually put my notice in 3 week prior, they asked me to stay on through the event.

< shrug > I'm still friends with alot of the clients I met while there and online. I have my own business www.marquisvehicleservices.com now.

I have also taken the General Manager position at Autoscope's Love Field location.

I've been in the business long enough to realize that I was not cut out to work for any dealership long term.

Anyways.. Chuck ( Svc Director ) is no longer with PPP either.. he took off the following Monday.

back on track now... Oil Services ....
