Default Good Dealer For Oil Change----And some Local law questions

Hey everyone,

I'm going to be out in Cerritos from Thursday morning until Sunday evening. Is there a good dealer that won't mess up my wheels and everything when I take it in for an oil change? i prefer a dealer fairly close to Cerritos, my California navigation skills aren't the greatest. Also, I am not familiar with CA law, so just being a guest in the state for a couple of days, should I have to worry about being too low, or my dark ___ tint, or my yellow headlights?

Thanks for the heads up

well I would say u can go to Hamer but thats out of your way....

but as far as your tint......yes just be careful. I would just roll them down if you see a cop and have the shade open so the light shines thru and its easier to see you.

For being low....I doubt you will get anything.

yellow headlights....again dont draw any attention to yourself and Im sure you will be fine

hope that helps

thanks for the info. How far away from where I am is Longo? I will be coming from Phoenix, so is there anything maybe near the I-10?

Do you have Arizona tags on your car? If so then you got nothing to worry about. When I was living in Arizona I got my Tundra tinted 15% all around. When driving in Caliornia I never got pulled over for my tint...and cops did notice it. If you do get pulled over just tell the cop that it's legal in Arizona.

Power Toyota Scion is in Cerritos. 605 at South st. The largest auto mall in the world--at least that is what they say............Longo is about 15 miles north of Cerritos. You should not have a problem with being too low unless you are on the ground. The tint and lights might get you some grief, but maybe the out of state plates will save you. There is a huge meet on Thursday night at Puente Hills Toyota. Puente Hills would be north on the 605 from Cerritos, East on the 60 fwy and off at Azuza. About 12-15 miles. See the notes in this forum............

Sweet! I'll definitely get my opil change there. I will need to see what evening agenda is like, but should be able to go to the meet. If it's not too hot to clean my car when I get there.

DO NOT GO to POWER CERRITOS Toyota. There porters suck at driving and damaged my rear bumper and curbed two wheels. They also ran my moms Solara into a Sienna. I suggust u go to North County Toyota in Anaheim or Longo in El Monte.
