Please help me understand. We're driving $100K+ cars and you guys are fretting about an extra oil change ($125) when you put it away for the winter? Like was said previously......Oil's cheap, motors aren't.
I have always changed oil immediately before I put mine away for the winter. Fresh oil through the motor and sitting in the sump for the winter makes sense to me.

It makes ZERO, I repeat ZERO difference before or after storage! There are far greater things to worry about!

My local garage told me 425$ for an oil change and dealers it is about 350$. As for this discussion, it is about bull.... needing an oil change. Oil last way longer than our dealers , manufacturers etc... say.

Yeah, kinda dreading the outcome. At least you're like 12000 miles away from the drama (except for Alaska). I know a guy who has a guy that could probably drive you that far in 2 days though lol...

I would find a new garage….and the oil filter I believe is about $12.00 . If you know someone with a hoist or somewhere you can rent one you can change your own for pretty cheap. It’s the transmission fluid that is expensive.

Why is it 350 at the dealer? As for my local, he always had better prices on jobs or tires wheels etc... I think the oil he would get is by quarts and not 45 gallons like a dealer. Anyway it doesn't matter, he told me to go to my dealership because it would be cheaper than him.
