Review Q&A oil filter rush
What add on service should you never fall for at the 10 min oil change place?
None of the offers because you shouldn’t be bringing your car to the Spee-D-Loob shops to get your oil changed. Why? Because most of these franchise shops …the ones that just do oil changes …generally do not have ASE certified mechanics working on your car. They have your basic minimum wage drop outs and summer vacation college kids doing the work. Do you really want to have these minimally trained folks wrenching on your car? While these fast lube shops may sell name-brand oils (which they will invariably over-fill your engine with) they sell no-name oil filters. The only thing as equally, if not more important, than quality oil is a good oil filter; this is the thing that removes the particulate matter from the oil occuring as a normal consequence of normal engine wear; some filters are better than others and some are downright bad. And none of the other “filters” they will try and sell you will have names on them either. But, hey, they gotta make money somewhere. Forget the fast lube shops. They are notorious for taking a simple oil change and screwing it up. Trying to get you in and out in ten minutes means they are rushing the job. They will forget to do things …like properly tighten your oil pan bolt so that it either leaks …because it’s loose …or they strip the threads because they tightened it too much. A proper oil change should take at least 20–30 minutes. Take your car to a good local independent shop …one with a good rep …doing good work they stand behind. Bring your car there for your oil and filter changes. You will not only get name brand oil but you will get a good filter as well …usually a NAPA Gold oil filter …made by WIX filters right here in S.C. USA. You will have an ASE mechanic working on your car and he or she will most likely put some professional eyeballs on your car while it’s up on the lift …looking for things needing attention. They will bring your attention to what they find needing attention. No, they are not trying to rip you off, they are trying to keep your car running well and properly maintained …which means it will be running at its safest …and, yes, they are trying to get your business. Bring your car to this shop for your emissions test; your tire rotations and alignments; and any other work your car may need. Because it’s not a matter of if, but when, your car will need repairs. Like the AMEX commercial; having a repair shop you can trust that does good work? Priceless.
As a mechanic, what was the biggest mistake you made when fixing a car?
I have been a mechanic for over six years now and I will never forget my first mistake and man, it was a close one. Two words for you: ,Double Gasket. ,When I was younger working for a local shop, my main job was oil and tire changes. Now, as most gear heads know when you take the oil filter off a engine to change it,, ALWAYS ,check to make sure that little rubber gasket came off with the old filter. That day I was in a rush and didn't check it and threw the new filter on. Now when those 2 gaskets (new and old one) sealed and I was about to start the car, I went to dump the old one and out of the corner of my eye I saw that the old filter's gasket didn't come with it. I removed the new one and sure as shit, the old gasket was still on the engine. Almost ended my job and possibly my career that day. Now, some people who aren't around cars or oil changes much might ask “why's it such a big deal?” Well, when the engine turns on it fills that filter with oil and ,a lot ,of pressure. If the filter is put on with a double gasket, when the person goes to drive the car after picking it up, the gaskets will blow. When that happens ,ALL ,of the engine's oil will shoot out in between the oil filter and the engine causing it to run out of oil at 55+ mph and the person won't even know. If it wasn't for luck, I would have had to buy that customer a brand new Cummins Diesel as it would have destroyed his engine. TL:DR ,ALWAYS ,check for a double gasket or you may be out $4,000 + for a brand new engine.
Why should you only hand tighten your oil filter?
Ideally one would break out a torque wrench and tighten each and every filter to proper spec. But giving the rush most oil changes are under, the very tight spaces the filters are, and generally laziness of most techs to not torque anything even tires these days it is not going to happen. The problem is oil filters require very low torque. They go thru alot if pressure, and a lot of heating and cooling. This cause the threads to stretch and contract which tightens the filter. The problem is a wrench amplifies torque by a lot, and so it is very, very easy to over torque a filter. When the next guy goes to take the filter off, it will be very, very hard. I have actually seen a few get completely stuck, and filter actually snap in half before the thread rotated.
Why would anyone do their car's oil change themselves when it's really cheap if taken to an expert's workshop?
I am not sure what you mean by an “expert’s workshop” as that is kind of a subjective title. Similar to many other stories, the first and only time I had someone else change my oil resulted in a disaster. I was working two part-time jobs, one full-time job, and going to school full-time. That left me with (slightly) more money than time. I was having problems with the power steering pump grinding, fixed the problem, but did not swap out the dirty fluid. I thought I could get the fluid flushed and replaced at a shop, so I might as well have it done as part of a fluid change. I showed up and asked them to swap out the transmission, which was almost due, the power steering and break fluids, and the oil and oil filter. They performed their services, billed me, and I drove off. I took a cursory look at the fluids when I got home, they all looked clean, so I assumed everything was fine. Next day, I left around 4:30 AM to get to a job site about twenty minutes away. I was doing landscaping for four hours in the morning (non-motorized activities to avoid breaking noise ordinances), getting groceries, picking up my girlfriend at the time to take her to work, then dropping groceries off at home before I had to be in class. On my way from the job site to the grocery store, in the middle of a crowded suburb arterial street, in the single turning lane, during rush hour, my truck started billowing huge clouds of thick black smoke. Cars were taking a wide berth driving around me as I slowly made my way to the edge of the road so I could shut off the truck. I hit recirculate to keep the smoke from entering the cab, and once I could get out of traffic enough to pull over, I did. I called to tell my girlfriend she’d have to call in late to work. We kept chatting as I anxiously waited for the smoke to stop before opening the hood. The smoke stopped enough to open the hood, so I opened it up to take a look. While I was looking for the source of the smoke, the fire department showed up with the big trucks, ready to battle an inferno. They had received multiple calls from passing commuters and only had to follow the thick plume of black smoke to find me. While the fire department was there asking me about the problem, I determined that the source was a loose oil filter. It had been spurting oil from the seam, spraying the surrounding areas, plus there was a pool that had formed in the skid plating. If I had kept the engine going much longer, there is a realistic possibility that the fire department would have arrived to find an incinerated vehicle. As the fire department went on their way, I tightened the oil filter and used every rag I could find to soak up the spilled oil, including the shirt I was wearing. After getting as much oil sopped up as I could, I called the fire department to make sure they were aware that I couldn’t help making some smoke, but planned on driving short distances to keep the engine from reaching combustion temperatures until I could cook the oil off. The grocery store was just a few blocks away, so I dug out one of those novelty compressed t-shirts I kept in my glove box, put it on, and did go grocery shopping, but the rest of my day was spent cleaning the truck and the (previously unnoticed) oil spill in the driveway, topping off the oil reservoir, and arguing with the “experts” about who was at fault. They claimed that there is no way they would install the oil filter too loosely, and that there was a problem with the vehicle or I had loosened it myself. All their technicians are “trained” to tighten them to a specific torque or some garbage like that. The argument consisted of a good six hours sitting on hold just to have repeated denials and accusations that it was my fault. Other than the dirty engine and a risky situation, there were no significant inarguable damages. The girlfriend called in sick to work, I missed my classes and the second half of my workday, and I spent days aggravated by the situation. Never again. If my vehicle is going to catch on fire from a stupid mistake, it better be my mistake.
How many miles can a supercar like a Ferrari or Lamborghini last compared to normal cars? Could they reach 200k miles with maintenance?
Yes,, and here’s a fun example: ,The highest mileage Murcielago In general, modern supercars (I’m talking those made after roughly 2000) can last as many or more miles as a “normal” car. The materials used for key wear parts like engine bearings and suspension bushing areas are, if anything, heavier-duty, than the average car. The caveats are: (1) Supercars will last a long time ,if, you use them like a normal car. ,That’s because they’re barely stressed at those lower speeds. However, if you drive with your foot to the floor the whole time, you will be using lots of components at their limits. They’ll wear out. (2) Heat and thermal expansion/contraction is the enemy with supercars., They generate a lot more heat as a result of generating more power, and the difference in mechanical tolerances is much larger between “cold” and “fully warmed up” than a normal car. So if you’re tootling along in stop and go traffic for 150k miles, you’re going to get a lot more thermal degradation of rubber hoses, plastic vacuum lines, wiring insulation, etc. etc. You also will damage them pretty quickly if you use them hard when they’re cold. Always warm up your supercar before driving like a supercar owner! (3) It ain’t gonna be cheap., Yeah, you can get to 150k miles, but you’ll be replacing a $2000 set of tires every 10–20k miles. You’ll be changing the oil with lots and lots of synthetic and using the factory’s $50 oil filter, so budget $400–500 every 5–10k miles for that. And when things do wear out, they’ll be a healthy multiple more expensive than on a “mere” luxury car like a midsize BMW or Benz. (4) *Your* body may not stand up as well to the wear and tear., I tried using a Testarossa as my daily driver. That experiment lasted for about a week. All of the stuff that makes a car like that fun for a Sunday-morning drive - the stirring noises, the direct steering, the stiff suspension - makes it kind of tiring on a 40-mile a day rush hour commute. Add on the energy that you expend maintaining hyper-vigilence: People tailgate you trying to take pictures, every driveway cut is a danger to your low-slung air dam, and you don’t want *any* door dings because non-original paint whacks the value of the car by 20%. All the supercar owners I know have a much more normal car or truck to drive to work every day.
Why shouldn't you change your own oil? How much does an oil change typically cost?
There is no reason not to for most vehicles, it’s not life and death surgery or rocket science. It is something to be done carefully and when not in a rush. Take your time and run through all the safety steps. Depends on the vehicle, or rather how difficult it is to gain access to the oil drain/s and oil filter. Once you have access it is almost the easiest maintenance job there is, which gives the most benefit for your money and time. Some vehicles, German especially, are notoriously difficult to access. Mercedes have multiple drain points. Many vehicles put the oil filter in a position that can only be reached when raised on a ramp. Sump drain plugs can be many different types of fitting, normal hex bolt, internal hex or Torx or Camcar, and any new shape the maker decides to use. Get the correct oil drain plug tool, the oil filter removing tool, access and you’re good to go. Always replace the oil filter, always use a good quality main brand oil, check the correct oil level then pat yourself on the back. How much a garage would charge depends as usual. In the UK it would typically be around £100 to £150. Called a minor service.
Should I do an oil change (car) myself or should I go to a mechanic to get that done?
ABSOLUTELY!!!!!! Lots of people will tell you that you should leave such things to ‘professionals’, that cars are too complex, that you are not smart enough, that you are above doing such dirty work, or that you save little to nothing. But I disagree. There are LOTS of REALLY good reasons to change your own oil. You can use the oil of your choice. Many shops throw in whatever bulk oil they can get cheap. Who knows if they will even use the right viscosity? And even if you pay more for synthetic oil, there is no guarantee you are NOT getting the cheap stuff., ,Or at least the very cheapest synthetic oil they can get in bulk. You can get a decent filter. You would probably be appalled if you cut open a typical oil filter used by a shop. They may all look the same on the outside. But a good filter has a good anti-drainback valve, synthetic screen-backed filter element, and all metal components vs the cardboard and paper used on a cheap filter. Better value. Many people argue that, given $20-$30 oil changes, it saves little to nothing to change your own oil. But that’s because shops are using the cheapest of the cheap when it comes to oil and filters. If you upgrade to synthetic oil, that $20-$30 oil change becomes a $70-$80 (or more) oil change. And they will STILL use a cheap filter. By contrast, a five quart jug of synthetic oil is less than $10 more than a five quart jug of conventional oil at Walmart! In the end, for around the same you would pay a shop to use cheap garbage, you can have full synthetic oil and a good filter (like a Wix XP or K&N). Less risk of getting a stripped oil plug. I’m sure you’ve either had this happen to you or know someone else who has had this happen. Even if the people changing your oil know better, they are rushed. And rushed people make mistakes. Other possible mistakes include an overtightened or loose oil filter. Or an incomplete fill of oil. More convenient. I know what you’re thinking here. But hear me out. Having a shop change your oil means having to go to a shop during business hours and wait for them do the work. In the best of circumstances, this means having to wait maybe 45 minutes to an hour while they do it. In the worst of circumstances, they have a backlog and you will have to wait even longer (and they probably won’t warm up your car before draining the old oil, either). All during daytime business hours when you likely have better stuff to do. When you change your own oil, you can do it whenever you want. It doesn’t have to be between the hours of 8:00AM and, ,5:00-6:00PM. You can even do it late at night if you are just plain bored. You get the satisfaction of doing the job yourself rather than NEEDING someone else to do it. You know that you did the job right and used quality oil and a good filter (rather than cheap garbage). You also know that you can handle the job when it could be rather inconvenient or impossible to have a shop do it (see above).
What is the best car to repair?
HI, in my opinion and experience of repairing cars over 15 years.. the best cars to work on in terms of ergonomics and most importantly maintenance access are most always Japanese.. Lexus,Toyota,Honda and Suzuki all being worth a mention. Now and again you'll see a design on a European car and see good maintenance consideration…but that's increasingly rare now. Engines are often built as ‘service units’ where you see illogical things like electrical control units being bolted to a vibrating lump exposed to extremes of temperatures and moisture. all the things that mass produced electronics don't like! And wiring harnesses clipped to an engine instead of vehicle body. This likely keeps production costs down and profit margins up for the manufacturers but creates stress for future maintenance. Please observe the pic enclosed of the modern Diesel engine bay… in a certain popular European vehicle.. and how poor access around the engine is and how everything is bundled on top of the engine itself and service items like the diesel fuel filter and oil filter, and air filter are all difficult to access. This is the tip of the iceberg… try removing the injectors to repair the very common combustion leaks around them!! Now onto exhibit-B This is a Honda I-ctdi engine.. as you can see the oil filter is in plain sight, the fuel filter is mounted on the bulkhead (out of pic) the air filter is mounted off of the engine.. which helps keep inlet temp down. The injectors are in plain sight as is the EGR valve..these sadly,are common problem points in todays diesel engines, so it makes sense to make them easier to access for maintenance mechanics. Now in writing this answer I'll no doubt have a lot of Euro car fans rushing to defend these vehicles as if it were their wife's honour I was poking criticism at… however let me finish by saying Japanese engineers get it wrong too.. and now and again certain ideas of theirs can be cursed.but on the whole they tend to make more reliable vehicles which need less downtime for repairs… and ultimately it really boils down to the mechanic working on the car what they prefer… I have a mechanic friend whom swears by BMW as the best product he's worked with for example.. Hope this answer helps.
Does your car mechanic mind if you bring your own part and watch them work on it?
There are a lot of good answers here. I liked the comparison to bringing your own steak to a steak house. That made me laugh. When I apprenticed to be a car mechanic I worked in a small shop. I had customers just walk into the shop, uninvited and watch me work. I would strike up a conversation. I had no problems with it. My boss would sometimes express concern over safety if they weren't wearing safety shoes or glasses. Sometimes it was a legit concern. If workplace health and safety were to come in out of no where he could be fined. Sometimes it was a way of getting customers to leave me alone. I have had customers bring me their own Oil, and Oil Filter. Which is a bit insulting. What? I can’t make like $10.00 off of doing your oil change? Really? I have also had customers bring used parts that are extremely hard to find because they’re driving something really old, or custom built. That’s sort of their own risk. I think most shops are getting out of doing things for people who bring their own used parts because of the liability. Even doing Safety inspections in Canada. It’s not a paying job on it’s own and puts you at risk if you sign off on something that someone could die in down the road. Wether it’s related to the work you did or not, you could be sued, end up in court, whatever. It’s not worth the risk. I have also requested customers come and look at something on their vehicle while I work on it. To show them what I was trying to explain before the work. Or to put their mind at ease. Or to justify an extra charge they might find on their bill after the repair. or why it’s taking so long. Or “this is what caused that noise, or that sensation”. As a diesel mechanic I haven't worked in a truck shop. Just for the city, fixing busses. If a bus has a problem on the side of the road, and it can be fixed in a short period of time, Then I make a judgment call. But now you're in the public eye. I have been filmed by multiple people while fixing a bus. I can’t react to that as a public employee. I Shouldn't actually even talk about it. But, On a bus with over 40 people, all squished together, and you step on to the bus to fix something in morning rush hour… People start asking you “how long is this going to take? I’m late for work already!” “hurry up!” “what are you doing?” They start filming you, they complain, they ask questions. It’s a bit different when you have no choice but to work in front of your customers, while being harassed, possibly on film. Something to consider when in the public eye is what the job entails. If I have to change a water pump on the road and I loose coolant on the street, on film, will I be on the news? “video shows public employee polluting the streets with chemicals” Is it safe to work on the street? It’s not worth it. At that point I’ll call in a replacement bus and everyone onboard will be delayed. The problem bus will be towed to the shop where it is safe, and out of the public eye. Just a different perspective for anyone who’s curious.
What is the most impolite thing a customer has done to you?
I worked in the service department of a Chrysler Dodge Jeep and Ram dealership for some years. I’m going back 15 years or so here. A guy had his Ram Truck towed in- still under factory warranty. He said the engine seized up. We took all his info , vin number, mileage . He waited in the lounge area. Vehicle went in the shop, in a little while the technician working on the vehicle requested the Service Manager to his bay in the shop. The vehicles engine seized because the small amount of oil left in the engine was complete sludge. The mileage on the vehicle was like , 20k miles. Now here’s why the tech called his boss over- the vehicle still had the factory installed oil filter. It is marked a certain way so the tech can tell. Long story short- this guy’s engine repair will not be covered by factory warranty. It covers part failures. The customer did not follow the maintenance schedule, which is clearly spelled out in the owner’s manual. My boss took the customer in his office & gently broke the news, I’m so sorry, etc. Well the guy told my boss “ Oh hell no- you are wrong- I’ve had my oil changed!!”. My boss said “Ok bring me the receipts for 2 oil changes “. Now my boss knows it had the factory filter. Later in the day the guy comes in to the Service Manager, goes in his office. He produces 2 receipts & my boss looked at them - Boss goes “ Man, these oil change receipts have no VIN number, no mileage,the dates are 4 months apart but the receipt numbers are consecutive, how do you explain that? I can’t tell how many quarts of oil they put in, or what weight? “ Obviously the guy had rushed home and tried to make bogus records so he could get a free repair. And all because he didn’t get his oil changed. The service manager made all the notes in the computer, how he locked up his engine by not performing regular maintenance. And the guy even had it towed to another dealership, & tried the same scam. But my boss had it documented properly and the guy got no love there either.
