    1st 7.5k mile oil chage

    My '03 Accord is getting close to it. Happen to receive a coupon mailer from
    my dealer -- $99 for this service! The main thing is really changing
    oil/filter. The rest is bs like "check fluid level....". Has anyone just
    told the dealer to do oil change for somethink like $35? Effect on warranty?

    All my dealer did for this service is change the oil, check the fluids and
    wash the car ($24.95)

    My dealer did the first oil change free. I think this is a message from
    them to you that you really don't want them servicing your car.

    Absolutely no effect on the warranty if you skip this. You do need to get
    the oil changed though.

    Run as far away from that dealer as you can and never go back. In my
    neck of the woods (MN), all the Midas muffler shops offer an oil
    change for $13.

    This is a terrible deal. The owner must think his customers are fools. The
    local Honda Dealer charges about $30.00 for a oil and filter change. They
    also check and replenish all fluids. Check the ads in your local paper or
    in those coupon clipper things that come with the junk mail. You should be
    able to find a service station near your home or local mechanic that will
    give you a much better deal. In my town, they have something called Jiffy
    Lube that has good deals but many of the employees are high school and
    college kids that know little or nothing about cars.
