Are there any specific reasons that you don't want to do the oil change at a certified Nissan dealer?

2 hour drive..
il talk to them before I decide to do it
maybe just buy the oil there and go to certified dealer

It is against North American Nissan policy to even bring your GTR in their garage with out a certified GTR technician on staff. Even then, it is that particular tech that has to drive it into the bay.

I could see this being a possible dilemma with a new car, but yours is a '10 like mine right -- no warranty left? I wouldn't drive 2 hrs for an oil change just for a "GT-R tech", that's for sure. It's a very easy DIY process post '09 as well....my buddy's '09 on the other hand, is a pita

I have 2 years after market warranty.. will not void the warranty.

 

[stormyboy]

Does this aftermarket warranty specify that a gtr tech has to do an oil change?

I'll bet no

So do you mean you cannot do any DIY to your GTR. Oil change or Rotor and brake pad change. Those are easy.

I'm thinking the Nissan dealership is not allowed to touch the car since nobody who works there is certified.. So, if anything were to happen, it would be on their hands, not the customer's, because the dealership should know better.

I buy the oil and filter myself (oil from Walmart for $28) and take it to an independent lube shop. They charge me $25 to do it, and they do a good job. It's actually a bunch of younger guys and they REALLY don't want to fuck the car up so they take their time with the panels and everything. Pretty cool.

Do you get a free bottle of Maple Syrup ?

That's actual a good rate bro, my local dealer charges 300$

I'm not clear what certification would be needed to change oil.

 

[shanet]

you can take the car anywhere for a oil change, no one can force you to use a Nissan GTR dealer. Nothing can be voided for not using a GTR certified dealer. I take my car to the local Quick Car they have changed the oil for 3 years for 70 bucks. Nissan wants 269 for the same oil change. Just becuase i drive a GTR does not mean Nissan needs to rape me. If you pull up my cars history EVERY single oil change at that quick car is documented just like at Nissan. Why pay 200 more? Its a oil change its no harder then on any other car.

 

[Dntlvet]

Well
I change my oil and I am not certified in auto repair.
My credentials are DAVDC and that is a certification.

 

[shanet]

If you change your own oil at home simply save receipts to document it. All good

 

[Gtr35ser7]

Maybe Nissan have different conditions depending on country.
For warranty if it's not done at Nissan dealer then must be done at a fully qualified motor mechanic. We can not change the oil ourselves while under warranty
