I guarantee you that I am much more thorough with my work. I've had 2 issues with previous dealers, and finally stopped giving them my work (WAY overtightened oil drain bolt...other time didn't tighten the oil filter enough, which caused oil to majorly leak).

I trust myself, far more than the dealer. I'd be willing to bet, most are more cautious with their own vehicle over the dealer's work.

I have watched some video reviews of oil filters and the Wix Xp and K&N Pro look to be really good, but what weight of oil and what brand is compatible with our cars, synthetic ect???
