I think i just bent over and took in in the...

I went to valvoline for an oil change. I ahd a coupon for 6 dollars off...20.99 plus tax. good deal.

Drove in with no problems but now when i drive i get a chime drill noise. Heres what it sounds like...think of the sound of two chimes hitting each other. now and the speed of a drill. when i accelerate lightly and sometimes in idle position, i hear this noise coming from behind the front passenger tire. its annoying as hell.

I went back and they looked at it and claimed its my O2 sesor - thats BS in my opinion. what do you guys think it is?

check to see if they filled it with
gear oil. dont laugh, a person I know accidently added gear oil from the dispenser and pump in 85-90w. pull the dipstick and smell

I use Valvoline oil, but always change my oil myself... I would never trust a lube place for anything.

hey now, i work at a valvoline fast lube. not by choice though, its extra $$ while im in college so i can afford to play with my car. i know what youre saying though. i wouldnt trust any of them either. i know what kind of idiots get hired at those places. lets just say they really need to do random drug testing and make sure they actually know what the hell theyre looking at under a hood.
