Fiasco today.... so Ladybug did her part today, and took the car for it's annual oil change... hahaha. It took us
a year to put 3100 miles on it.. I was trying to make it so when the car was pulled in it would be right at 3000
miles and exactly 12mos to the day Missed it by 2wks. and 100 miles.. ha.
So, 5min oil change, stay in your car. Under the car or 20min and then try telling her, Um, the last place that did your oil change stripped your drain plug so they started sucking it out thru the dip stick tube. hey, I was a service manager, I know what suck a lux is and it's actually faster.. so why was she there 2hrs. Oh was she pissed off.
Needless to say, I'll be fighting for my $ back and a new drain plug. why does it take 20min to determine the drain plug is rounded off... because YOU did it and are trying to blame it on the previous oil change. then, she hears the Manager tell the idiot, go up sell her telling her her car needs Synthetic.
This is where they messed up, she's married to a guy who did service 20yrs. she says, Synthetic is only viable on a car motor if used before the first oil change or 5000 miles. After that carbon build up prevents the synthetic from adhering to the metals anymore and thus, a waste of $$... she yells to the F'n Mgr... I'm not a stupid woman.
ah snap. so yeah, 5min oil change took 2 1/2hrs. been a long 2 days, pick my sister up tomorrow at 4:33..
few hiccups but looking like we'll have a great visit, all she wants to do is relax at the pool..
