Have you ever changed fluids in your vehicle?

I drain your wife’s fluids at regular intervals.

Only the blinker fluid

Nope, but thanks for the reminder to switch to the winter air in tires.

I was able to change the transmission fluid on the previous vehicle I had, but with the current one, it's too difficult, so I have to take it in, but I don't plan on doing that until it reaches 100k miles.

I always change my oil myself, and put synthetic in my car every 9-10k miles, and it probably costs me around $50 for the oil and filter. I changed the air filter along with the oil last time, it was around $25, if I remember correctly.

I don't know how much it costs to have somebody do the routine maintenance on my vehicle. My dad taught us when when we were young, and I enjoy doing it.

Have you not looked into scheduled maintenance on your fake 3/4 ton you bought? You can afford it.

No surprise here. My wife got conned into a cabin filter/air intake filter with her standard oil change at Take 5. Spent $165. I was livid. I'm pretty sure half the bill was the oil change, and understandable a 5 minute oil change is strictly a service charge.

Last week I bought the air intake and cabin filters for less than $40 total and showed her so she can see how bad she got ripped off initially. They didn't even rotate the damn tires.

Heard a lady just spent $500 for them to change her battery after they told her it was going bad

I definitely have sticker shock for auto batteries. Mine was $300 at Auto Zone about 6 months ago.

I don't know why but in my head batteries are still like $80, and I replace them so infrequently I guess I forget how expensive they are now.

I’ve changed transmission fluid before but a lot of new vehicles have sealed transmissions where you can’t do it anymore.

I’ve flushed a radiator too.

Changing brake fluid isn’t necessary
