I want to use one of the 3 free oil changes from scion but I want synthetic oil to be used in the change. Can I buy the oil and have them put it in or what? What are my options?

 

talk to your dealer and see what you can arrange with them. you might even be able to talk them into you only paying the difference between regular oil and synthetic.

 

I have been reading up alot on oil recently, I agree synthetic is the way to go. However you might want to consider waiting a few oil changes before you switch over. The engine breaks-in better with dino oil supposedly. I am going to use my 3 free oil changes every 3000 miles, and then switch to synthetic for every 5000 miles there after (even though I could go longer).

 

I just bought an oil filter (part# 90915-YZZA2) for my tC. I've put 1020 miles on it in about 10 days and I am ready to change it myself. I used the 10% coupon for Toyota parts. I was told tC and some Camry share same engine. It should be fun getting my hands inside this babe

 

What 10% off coupon? Was I supposed to get one of those with my car?

 

Well, that's a 10% off of Toyota parts coupon (Scion parts excluded) from my dealer. They send out these coupons every month for special express oil change, tune up...
