Do it myself, Mobil 1 for the good car, Castrol GTX for everything else. Fram filter. The Legacy is the best, I can change the oil without jacking up the car [8D]

I use Mobil One Full Synthetic Oil, and Mobil One High Mileage Oil Filter. I change the oil myself every 10,000 miles. I use the jack that's in my trunk and my friend hasanother jackhe lets me borrow along with his oil draning pan.

Pennzoil usually does it for me but i think from now on i'm going to do it myself, partly cuz of boost/sandwich adapter/checking things while i'm under there, and just because there have been times when my plug wasnt screwed on tightly, etc. [>:]

I just did mine yesterday in 20 minutes. But I had to ask my dad for some help in taking off my oil filter since it had gotten really tight and because I was sick and weak (hadn't eaten anything all day or sleept because I had terrible stomach from eating some bad food the night before[:'(]).
