Default Oil change in SFBA

I do not want to spend extra $$ to change oil at dealer, what shop you can recommend in Peninsula, cheap, fast, reliable? (Car is LS300 < 15k miles)

I don't live up there, but PepBoys had an outrageous coupon in last Sunday's paper- a Valvoline MaxLife oil change for only $13.99 (w/rebate).

This quite a bargain because Valvoline MaxLife oil is always at least $1.75 in stores- I almost never see it on sale.

There's been plenty of other threads discussing where to get good/cheap oil changes- do a search if you want to read up on it.

Try find a Toyota dealer with express oil change.

What does the Lexus dealer want to charge you for just an oil change anyways?

I do not know exactly, but last time they charged me $150 (they included some crap like topping fluids), but it too much in my opinion.

find a Toyota/Lexus specialist, i'm sure there are plenty in the Peninsula. If you lived in Contra Costa County, i could drive to your place and do it...
