Yes. I am that much of a newbie and sheltered. Warned so in my intro thread.
Anyway, just got my TB back from the shop. along with fixing my Power Steering, I had asked them to change my oil. They neglected to change my oil though, and I'm getting tired of bringing my car in every other day. Since Oil changes I've been told are supposed to be simple, I want to just do it myself.
I normally get it changed with Synthetic (Mobil 1 As I understand it?) but beyond that I know nothing. So, from a complete newb standpoint...
How does one go about it?
What do I need?
Where are the caps and such in an 03 TB LS?
What Synthetic oil is best?
--Does Synthetic also actually get you mroe than the 3000 supposed miles?
What does one do with the old oil?
And anything else I should know but forgot?
I'll be checking the owner's manual to be sure but wanted tips from others as well.
