Synthetic Oil question....... To complain or not to complain
Ok so I go to Walmart of all places to get my oil changed (damn there are some weird people that shop at Walmart!! ) since they only charge $30 for a Mobil 1 synthetic change, with Fran Pro filter. FYI
Anyway, im at the check out about pay and notice that it was only for $15.85 or somthing, and ask why it was so low. It ended up that the dumbass didn't put me in for a Synthetic change and i got regular Moble 10w30. So they draned it again and put in the synthetic.
My question is, I have been using Moble 1 for the life of the car, will this be bad to mix the two together like this???
It has never had regular oil in it, is this going to mess anytying up? I realize it will take a couple of changes to get the remaining oil out.
What would you do????

Walmart has some kickass prices on Mobil 1 oil. A 4 quart container is $17 and change.

This was your first mistake. Why don't you just change your own oil? I just did mine today took about 15-20min.

Re: Synthetic Oil question....... To complain or not to complain (ill phil)
O no im not worried about damage, im not that naive.......
So i live in an apartment complex, thats why i don't do it my self. But after this, i think i might just grinn and bear it.
I was only worried about the mix, if that was even a problem. Which it isn't.....
just overeacting...
