That said, this dealership was in SC which is a different story.
Brother, I hope you know I was joking, I have family in NC and my best friend is from SC

Either way there are morons at every dealership, try to get a GTR tech and you should be ok

We just had some work done on a company Hummer at the stealership. I picked it up and took it home this week to put a few miles on it. 30 miles later, the damn drive shaft came loose. Turns out they forgot to torque all the bolts back when they pulled the engine out to work on it. Idiots.

This is how a few bad dealerships can ruin the majority of other good to great dealerships. Me, I buy my own oil, gasket, filter, and take it to a trusted oil change place (mine happens to be a Russian mafia car wash) along with a pair of ramps and they do the rest for $15 bucks in 15 minutes and I'm on my way. I can see them pour and do the job. They also show me that my oil filter magnet is still around.

Yup.:tup: That is why I drive it up the ramp myself. And yes, no longer scared of being too low. No such thing as being too low my friend. See you at Cerritos in March.

Is it that low now??? I can't wait to see it, lol
I think your car is/will be the most tastefully modded

And the dealer off the 405 and Rosecrans specializes in lowered cars, so I go there! :tup:

No worries man, some people are stupid though haha. I love NC, although the Pacific NW is up there too.

I have noticed on the forums and in the manual it says to use 5W-30. I am fixing to call the service department and see what is up with this.... Do they not have a clue what is going on? :mad:


LOL Alabama!!

tightening the 12 or so screws correctly for the shroud (plastic cover under the engine).
or filter loose or too tight, or even the plug.

You know what's HILARIOUS to me???

That everyone thinks you have to take that shroud off to do an oil change... The dealer ONLY takes off the back 4, and bends the plastic down
