I live in Norway. I went to my local Car Mechanic and asked for an oil change. He asked me when it was changed last, and if the filter also was changed. He then told me "come back when you've driven another 2000 miles and we will change it for you, it's still good" I came back after 2000 miles, and he asked me if I wanted to see when he changed so that I could do it myself one day if I wanted, but he would gladly change it for me always if I wanted. I now work there.

This solidifies why I learned how to oil change myself and do the maintenance. There are tons of KZread videos out there now that show how to do it properly you can honestly just do it yourself, if you invest on the proper tools you can get started.

Thank god I took auto mechanics in high school for two years…I’m now 55, but those simple lessons have saved me thousands in rip off repairs. I’d HIGHLY recommend that everyone take a community collage course on basic automotive repair. You don’t have to be a pro, but it teaches you the basics to protect yourself from rip offs like the ones in the video. I’ve owned dozens of cars over the years, and have called out so many mechanics trying to rip me off, I lost count! (I’ve had to call the police 3 times after confronting the garage, and they threatened me!!!) Knowledge is key in protecting yourself!

Just yesterday a lady came in for a headlight bulb and her brake pedal went to the floor with no stopping power applied. Replaced her bulb and checked the brake fluid. It was empty. She refused service, so I at least topped it off and pumped the brakes a bit to get the warning light off and get somewhat of a pedal. She then loaded up her kid in the car seat and drove off.

Just found your channel. Love the spirit within you 💯.

I remember at our oil change shop, we were required to first go by maintenance interval, then by coloration. Even if a fluid looks new, if its been 80k miles and the transmission was never services, and it requires a service at 80k, we recommend it. This being based off of manufacturers recommendations. We generally looked over the vehicles fluids, judged them by color or smell, then checked the intervals using carfax and our own records, then went to make sales. Occasionally we didn’t need to check intervals because the color was extremely bad, but almost all of the employees got real pissy when upper management began to nag us for not making as many sales. Sorry we’re the best in the county for doing the job right

It's Valvoline for me. Not only do they fill your tires, top off the fluids, check all lights, change the oil, but they do it all in front of you and show you the new oil on the dip stick when it's done.

If oil change cost only 29 dollars, it has to be a scam as even required oil alone costs more. 29 dollars gets you only a new filter, no oil, no work. It is a terrible idea to follow carmakers oil change interval as that is way too long. Oils need to be changed once a year or every 6000-8000 miles which ever comes first, depending on driving conditions.

He means that because Canadians have a reputation for being so polite, that if even they are deceiving each other over oil changes, the rest of the nations (which are less polite) will also be victims of this practice by mechanics.

I have a 2008 Mercedes S class 3lt V6. I have changed all filters and oil myself for the past 4 years and the most it has cost is, even some sensors with an Autel scanner, easy with common sense. Less than £80 every service.

Pro tip: as not all enthusiasts twist their own wrenches there are many “car folk” who know where the brand specific garages are. Talk to these folks. Find a reputable garage you trust and build a relationship with that shop. Not only will they get to know you but also your car. This will aid in diagnosis and future services. This is also far cheaper than a dealership.

@@user-lz2yd5oz5j I forgot to care

Had some dealings like this with a Goodyear place saying the battery was low. My sister said replace it. They broke a piece of metal off the car. Tried calling around places to find replacement part, no luck. Manager said he would drive himself to pick up part, never happened. He said they would pay for rental. Took several days to get part and fix it. I was told over the phone higher ups weren't going to pay for rental after they said they would. When I picked it up, employee said she heard what happened and felt it wasn't right since she heard they would pay for it and didn't...so she gave me the keys and said she wasn't charging me for the oil change or battery. Still had to pay for the rental. They tried to tell me the shocks needed replacing too when I had it in for brakes. Car still rides fine.

Would have been interesting what they do if a customer declines the extra unnecessary procedures. Do they even do the oil change?

Burnt power steering fluid, the silent killer. These guys are doing the lords work, protecting folks from burnt fluids unrelated to combustion. The 8 minute brake fluid change is very impressive as well. Bravo gentleman 👏 But in all seriousness…charging for maintenance prematurely is one thing if you actually perform the service. Some people want their vehicle pampered. But charging for a service that is never performed is just ethically horrific.

I had a recent experience with getting an oil change. After the oil change, I suddenly started losing oil, which had never happened before. Every gas fill up, I had to fill up on oil too. By the time I was able to figure out what to do about this, the vehicle blew up and became a total loss.

I asked him when’s the last time he checked his oil and he said he had just gotten an oil change at a shop less than a month prior. Let him know that shop screwed him and that they never refilled his oil. This is exactly why I have always and will always do the basic maintenance on my car myself.

I complete my own oil and oil filter changes on my '38 Chev coupe and my '67 Chev C-10 stepside pickup truck. Since i don't have a "lift," I have to use ramps to raise up the front end for access to the oil drain plugs. A tight squeeze, but at least I know that the cost will be only for the supplies, and I don't have to worry about screw-ups or outright fraud from oil-change shops. I took the truck to Econolube for lubrication several years ago. The oil was changed, but the technician failed to tighten the drain plug properly. Later that day while parked nearby in a large box store parking lot, I noticed a large puddle of oil beneath the truck. After checking the problem (a loose drain plug), I tightened it and added oil required to bring the level to the proper mark on the dipstick. Econolube or other oil change companies will never touch these classic vehicles again.

I am lucky to have a local mechanic I can trust. He helps identify issues with my car (real issues) and even does free diagnostics.

I went with a friend one time (years ago) to get an oil change. They come out and tell her the air filter is really dirty and needs to be changed. I kinda stepped in and said I wanted to see the filter. We went into the shop with them and the dude could not figure out how to get the air filter out. I was pretty sure he didn't know if it needed changing or not. It didn't :) If you can't change your own oil go to your trusted mechanic. Skip these quick lube places.

Anyone else a lube tech? I work at a dealership and we are also told to upset. Luckily for our customers, our lube techs are hired on at no experience either. So we don't know anything about brake fluid color or smell, we just check fluid levels. I've only sold any automotive fluid to a customer because theirs was leaking but whenever we are thinking that a vehicle is in need of new tires , we are always told to sell 4 tires, even if say they just came in due to a puncture in 1. The manager says it can mess up the diff or transfer box. I don't know if that's true, I'm no expert mechanic. My favorite thing to check on vehicles are lights. They either work, or they don't. You cannot lie. The technician videos we send to customers are brilliant, and probably came about because of scams like these.

I had him call the dealership and they said they didn’t even have the equipment to do that. So I went under there with him to get a refund! They of course were all smiles but it really upset me and I let them know they were shysters! Of course they knew that but I really should have gone to the law. Cause if they did it once they did it over and over! The company is Firestone. Every single time I drive by them I think about what they did. It still pisses me off to do that to the elderly!!!!!
