So, what's the verdict on DIY oil changes? I see a lot of conflicting reports, both regarding whether or not you will have warranty issues doing it yourself as well as what records to keep/how to prove you did the changes.
I took it to the dealer for the first change, and got raped paying almost 90 bucks!
I have another area dealer that charges 30 bucks, which is much more reasonable, however I'm doing a DIY change tomorrow (I'm driving the car to Florida and back, leaving Sunday, and nobody around here could fit me in before then). I probably won't go over 7500 miles since the last change, but I'm doing it just for the peace of mind, better safe than sorry.
If this is going to be a warranty liability, I won't continue to do so. Otherwise, it would be nice to do changes on it myself when no other major service is required to save time.
