Pilger's if you want a mechanic to do it.

The quick change places are cookie cutter. Just go to the closest one on Google maps.

I use Wolf Creek at Rock Prairie. They have always did a good job. Went last week however with my own oil and filter like I usually do - $55. Upped their price big time. Seems harsh. Looking for a new place now so following this thread.

I've had a good experience with the (relatively new) Express Oil Change on Wellborn. Seem like good people and when I had a coolant light come on I took it in there. I had recently had the system flushed and refilled and they said sometimes when you do that and then drive for a bit the levels will drop a little, so they topped it off and didn't even charge me for it.

Hard to explain but when I've gone there I've gotten the vibe that they're hard working and want to do a good job versus some other places where when you pull in it almost seems like you're inconveniencing them by trying to bring them business.

That place across from Frankie's gas station and cata-corner to Walmart in CS. The dude that runs that place is top notch. Think it's Midas.

We usually go to Sevciks if we are in CS. Otherwise we go to the Mobil1 Lube Express on William J Bryan- I really like them!

I just go to the dealer with a coupon they have on their website.

Unfortunately, Sevcik no longer does quick in-out oil changes. Oil change treated like any other mechanical appointment.

Really? When did that change? I stopped about a month ago...

Walmart type of places will make you cry when your realize they did not put the drain plug back in place.

Hire a mechanic if you care about your car.

They will also put your drain plug in and crank on it like The Hulk, which is completely unnecessary.

Express Oil Change on Wellborn - Hands down THE BEST oil change place I have ever visited... and I have visited many all around the country.

Many, if not all, of the crew are veterans or sons of veterans. They run a tight ship and REALLY take care of you. The Chief runs the show like a carrier flight deck - which he actually did for a living.

They catapult the vehicles out when done?

HAHA - Then they would REALLY corner the market! I did that in a former life and it was natural to offer a salute ( which was returned) after the director cleared me to...drive to HEB

Fake news.

I don't think so, but maybe they got enough feedback and changed their mind. Which would be good from my perspective.

When did they change? I know they tried that when new ownership took over, but quickly changed back. And I was there about a month ago for a quick change.

Might have to check them out, but don't see any prices on their website...can you share what you paid for your last oil change (and what type of oil service it was...i.e. dino, synth-blend, or full-synth)? TIA!
