Dr. Pomade Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Any recommendations on where to get an oil change for the Z06? I don't have time or the inclination to do it myself, and I don't feel comfortable enough taking it to a Jiffy Lube, Sprint Lube, etc. Money really isn't an issue either. Thanks in advance.

88lx5oh Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 in worked at a fastlube.. and i msut say they are thourough with what they do. jsut get a synthetic blend, or full synthetic oil. the rest of the oil is garbage. and wiht that oil change they check tire pressure, lube all the fittings, check your diff fluid, tranny fluid, washer fluid, bnlah blah blah..

Dave1647545494 Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 why not just take it to the dealership where you bought it? after you get srvice there once they start sending you coupons and stuff in the mail. should be able to get it done for about 20 bucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ranger_Man Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Take it to the valvoline near the powell road and sawmill intersection around noon on Monday. Look for an old brown 300D Mercedes in the parking lot. That would be Bill's car, he is the manager there. He knows his shit and is a good guy to boot.

Guest doggunracing Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 [Mowgli] I will change your oil just to smell the greatness of the LS* discharge. [/Mowgli] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin R. Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 You can give me 20$ ill change it for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kohones Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 Another suggestion? Go to Maxton Chevy on rt 161, they have a stand alone oil change facility. They'll put the factory spec "Mobil 1" in her too. In their main service garage they have a specially trained Corvette Tech, he's very very good & he's worked on mine, you have to make an appt for him though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam1647545489 Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 John gimme a call. I can come up to your place and do it. Or I would take it to IPS. Let them do it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Mike, having you guys do it would be great, but my impression is that IPS is a bit too busy to fuck around with oil changes right now.

Let them do it..If not for the oil change, then maybe to lower the car on the stock springs - I've got to get rid of some of this fender well gap.
