Got my oil changed! and some other stuff
Well, I finally brought in my car to get an oil change, and some other stuff.
Lub, oil and filter service
Castrol gtx lube, oil and filter change
oil filter, powerflo
recycling fee
High Milage castrol 5w-30
Air conditioning service
Alternator drive belt
Poly rib belt
Water pump drive belt
The total damage was $151.48!!!
I went to Strauss Auto, best place I know of in the area. After I took it out of the garage, and pulled up into the highway, the car was FLYING! Not really, but you get the idea.
I also found out that there's a leak on my Y-connector for the exhaust. Pretty big hole too =/ So I need to find a garage that does mufflers as well so I can have it fixed.

It is, i've done about four on my previous cars and I would be lying if I say i wasn't nervous the first couple times. I'll be taking detailed pics to see if I can do a write up on it for the DIY guys.
Chris, if you want to learn how to do stuff just hit me up... ohhpapi and Soup said they'll help you out too if i'm not mistaken. Only thing is i don't really have a driveway or garage to work on, usually just go to my friends spot.

You mentioned that the alternator belt, a/c belt, water pump belt were replaced... you do know that one belt drives everything right? I'm not trying to be a smarty pants just don't want you to get robbed for your money
