Knocked out a quick oil change

What did you do today non-detailing related?

Not sure it saves much money or times these days but I enjoy doing it myself.

Also picked up another used oil container from Auto Zone.

I love this funnel too. Huge opening. Screws into place with a half turn.

I'm planning on changing my oil this weekend. I'm the only one who has ever done it.

Benefit of doing it yourself is getting to control the parts/oil used. Cost wise it usually costs me more to do mine, I run Amsoil and Motul and neither are cheap...but my VW turbos don't eat those like they do the factory fill Castrol Edge.

I think Edge is what my dealership was using. I've had to keep an eye on the oil level and frequently add it. I did the last oil change myself with Mobil 1 and haven't noticed the same.

Revamping this old cast iron table, the original timber loooooong gone. A good job to do on a cold, wet day.

For the cast iron legs, the old bolts needed to be cut off with an angle grinder, before being wire brushed and pressure washed. Once dry, the legs were hit with some fresh matte black paint. The timer slats are merbau decking, which were ripped to width and chamfered. New timber was then drilled and bolted to the legs and the stabilizer bars secured. Sanded and ready for a coat of varnish in the morning.
