It only takes 30 minutes tops if you would like to do it yourself instead.
Just roll it up on some ramps undo the bolt let it drain replace and refill.
If you dont have ramps, idk if you can get it high enough on one side to do it with the jack thats in your trunk, but i would think that to be unsafe.....

If your car is not lowered, you can reach the oil plug without jacking it up. That's what I did when I changed it myself.
But if you're able to take nycgps up on his offer, jump on it. Just don't let him talk you into synthetic.![Wink](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/wink.gif)

"I wanna go fast!"
I go to this big car wash place by me...lol. They let me stand there by the car and watch them do it. They don't **** anything up. They change the filter/oil/refill all fluids... can't really beat it. Its not rocket science so i have no problems letting them do it as long as i watch.
