    Jiffy Lube changed my oil only 2k miles ago. Guess what I discovered when I removed the valve cover. IMG_20260711_202633685.jpg IMG_20260711_202643698_HDR.jpg IMG_20260711_191558615_HDR.jpg

    jiffy lube, HUGE mistake..... We made a lot of money replacing engines with leaking/missing drain plugs
    and loose/double seals oil filters..... And cheap oil.
    I doubt they've been using synthetic oil. Or cheap crappy synthetic oil....

    Those places or the worst thing you can do to any car!
