Flushing Good or Bad

Okay, you really should stop going to Jiffy Lube…right now. We have heard a litany of horror stories on here about draining old oil and forgetting to fill with new oil; emptying the transmission fluid and overfilling the engine, in the process destroying both; stripping out oil drain plugs; and other things.

The kids working there are NOT certified techs, and they are pushed to go faster and faster (while also pushing unneeded services, like the ones you’ve been offered), which invariably leads to mistakes. Go ANYwhere else (preferably an independent shop) for your oil changes before the odds turn against you.

Search the forum for “Jiffy Lube” to read up on why they’re the absolute last place to ever take a car.
