Let's talk about servicing our Camaros
What is everyone going to do? Garage oil changes or take it to the dealer?
Also, what oil is everyone planning on using? |
dealer. only for convenience. disposing of the old oil isn't easy where i am. i'm a steady customer and am treated well. i will use synthetic, as probably will be factory reccomended.
|
Mobile 1. Didn't I see someone on here say it has synthetic from the factory? If so, wouldn't that mean the engine is already broke in as it is not reccomended to use synthetic for break in? Would that also put an end to all the break in concerns people have?:iono:

Dealer BAD, home garage GOOD.
|
Dealer for first oil change and checkup, then me for everything after that.
Castrol GTX FTW. |
We offer free loaners, and your 5th oil change (synthetic included) is free.
Why wouldn't you take it to the dealer that knows the car? |

Depends on where I'm living. Right now I live in an apartment so I can only do simple task like air filters myself. Oil changes and the like will have to go to someone else. There are some good dealers I've found that not only do a good clean job, but don't charge much either. Some independent shops (not Jiffy Lube) are good too.

I'd do it myself. Have total control over it and I don't want nobdy touching my car then me. Plus it would be great to show up in the service hall with the Camaro next to all the boring cars around here :D
|
I really want to have dealer documentation for everything with this car. AS I've never been the first owner of a car in my life I intend to make the most of being able to track it's history.
That being said, the horror story of the Corvette owner that was shared here the last week or so scared the bejeesus out of me. |
I change my own oil. tho I might let the dealership do the first couple while its still under warranty. but then again, no car ive ever owned has ever had a warranty and ive never worried about it. mainly cus I like to "change" things on my cars.
not to mention, ive read reports that if you use a motor oil other than the type used in the car when you get it, it will void your powertrain warranty. not sure about the validity of that tho. and Royal purple will be swapped into my car after about 1000 miles. |
