    I would not trust the dealer to perform an oil change anyways. They put the lowest paid and lowest skilled people on the oil change jobs. Especially the "free" oil changes.

    Best to do them yourself. Keep all receipts. Or have a good independent shop do them with quality parts.

    Toyota recommends rotating tires and doing an “inspection” every 5k. My dealer does that free until 25k.

    I would love to learn how to change my own oil and YouTube is helpful with that. Just need the tools and have the supplies on hand as needed.
