looking for cheapest oil change

deals up to 5 liters - not good for me, cause they want to charge me 5-10 dollars for extra liter.

He is trying to do an oil change on his 2 cars (@ 3.65L of oil each), and pay just for one. This forum is all about D E A L S :cheesygri

Have you tried Meineke? They have an awesome deal on oil changes right now. $19.99 is really darn hard to beat.

Ain't a viper. Would be a 10L oil change.

A Z06 Corvette has a dry sump engine, I think it takes 12 liters or something like that. 7L sounds like maybe an Audi 2.7l V6.

Can't you just buy the extra liter yourself and tell them to put it in?

ROFL :lol:

But seriously it's reasonable/normal that most oil change prices include only ~5L of oil. Paying more because there is more oil that has to go in, should be expected. If the OP really wants to save money, they should consider changing the oil themselves instead of looking for "the cheapest" place to do it. Looking for the cheapest is usually not the best idea.

About that, but my Jaguar E-type uses ~11L in its 4.2L I-6 "XK" engine.

If your going to be putting in Dino oil. Just pay for 5L deal and once you get out of the shop dump the extra 2.7L yourself.

Easy peazzz;)
