Kwik fit oil service

[supermatt123]

Fancy getting my oil changed, was going to do it myself but i have seen kwik fit will change the oil and filter for £25, with mobil 1.
Has anyone else used this service? as iam always very wary of using kwik fit

i bet they dont use the mobil1 fully sysnthetic 5w40 thou as the oil would cost more than what they charge total
best to do oil your self then you no its been done right with the correct type/viscosity

Cooking Oil or recycled! Wouldn't risk it mate TBH.

 

[supermatt123]

yes i thought this myself and asked the question, he said i could watch them put mobil 1 if i wanted!, he just said that because they buy in such bulk as a company they get massive discounts

 

[Turner]

dont believe anything they tell you and only half you see as they probably put curlube stuff in a mobil container,lol
as long as its 5w40 then should be ok(if you watch them)lol

Its deffo mobil 1. I have used kwik fit in norwich for years. Excellent value for 25 quid, the trick is to watch them like hawks and tell them what to do. Saves getting your hands dirty. They also get me a genuine renault filter from renault because i ask them to.

Do it yourself, then you know whats in the engine.
I got reno to do my old 182 and i told then twice which oil i wanted in and they still put totally different stuff in, wasnt even the standard stuff the 182's should run on.
Typicall reno, not a clue! Same as my spelling!

ATS did my last car for around £35, that was with Shell Helix fully synthetic.

I'd imagine you don't even know what oil should be used.

No there fine just check.

When garages buy oil its dirt cheap vs why customers pay in halfordss etc so they can do chnages for cheap.
