Default Auto Service - Oil Change Etc

Thanks again for all the good info on this subject !

Sounds like VIP is the place to avoid, too many bad experiences, sorry to hear some have caused some financial repercussions as a result of service, or lack of it ! Bad reputations travel fast !

Called Mikes Quality Care in Laconia, I think they quoted $34 for Oil Change, and check of all other fluids, plus Vac car !

BTW, Wal-Mart in Tilton same service is $30. Nothing against Wal-Mart,
I spend a lot of $$$ there, but for the peace of mind would rather trust to automotive tech professionals, will take my car care to 'Mikes' !

JMen24,
Thanks for the story about Synthetic oils, had no idea about this !
What do you think about adding a 'Slick50' product to the engine oil for the 100,000 mi car ? Would it help extend engine life or would I be wasting my money ?
