Dealer Oil Change

Discussion in 'General Motoring' started by marcnew, Apr 29, 2006.

  1. In my world, there is usually a place you can go that you can trust for MOST
    of your work besides the dealer (in my case, it is the local Firestone Total
    Car Care Center - great techs, excellent work, fair prices).

    Most of those places also have a quick and inexpensive oil change. If you
    get to know a mechanic (or a garage full of them, as I have here), they will
    take good care of you. If I have service done there, usually they will give
    me a courtesy oil change at no extra charge (they may just be being nice to
    a man of the cloth, but I think here it is more than that).

    If you mean the in-tank fuel filter, there's an access hole for the fuel
    pump assembly in the floor of the trunk just behind the rear seat. On the
    down side, you'll probably want the special tool to get the fuel pump
    retainer off.

    is this different than the retainer ring on most fuel pumps in the tank?
    those just unscrew with a brass drift!! ??

    You've got the idea. If found this one particularly difficult, though,
    when I had to do one without the tool.
