Re: female vs male oil changes
Gotta love how the 8-parenthese automaticalls turns into the cool smiley on this board, because everyone here knows how cool looking for a 9/16" box end wrench is.
Personally I think it's cooler to just grab your adjustable wrench and save yourself a minute, as #9 states .

Re: female vs male oil changes
I made a few changes......
Oil Change instructions for Women :
1) Pull up to Jiffy Lube when the mileage reaches 3000 miles since the last oil change.
2) Drink a cup of coffee.
3) Grease monkey tries to talk her into replacing brand new air filter and performing other services that he insist need to be done, all while he stares at her ****.
4) Calls boyfriend/ husband/ dad to ask if those things really need to be done.
4) 15 minutes later, she has to tell the receptionist to remove the charges for all additional services because they were declined. (they always try to sneak them on the bill)
5) Pays for services (no one uses checks anymore) and walks out with a half *** serviced car.
6) Re-adjust seat, mirrors, and radio station.
7) Drives off
Money spent:
Oil Change $20.00
Coffee $1.00
Total $21.00
I HATE Jiffy lube. When I was 16 and didn't even know what an oil filter was, the grease monkey told me that they couldn't reach the oil filter on my car, so they didn't replace it and that they gave me a $5 discount. After being told that I got ripped off, that is when I learned to change my own oil.

My civic will be getting LOF's done at the honda dealer. LOF is important, not oil change, because after my modification to the ES kit there are sommething like 22 grease points on my suspension.

Walmart Lube express $15.95
Synthetic change $30.00
I would spend more time and money doing it myself, so usually just go to walmart, drop the car off, check out some toys, eat something, checkout the movies, and the car is done.
