I go to Flagship too, it always cost more than the coupon, but someone here kindly pointed out some legit reasons for the upcharge, so it's cool.  Plus you get a free car wash, which does it for me.  The gal that works in the oil change side has always been straight up honest with me.  4951

Look for the coupon you get in the mail, big envelope with a ton of coupons. 4951

I second the 494 recommendation. Don't quite understand upcharge comment. I pay what the coupon states ($22.99) + tax. Don't go for their $4 wiper fluid or coolant top offs. Just buy jugs at O'Reilleys. Thank them for their recommendation for an air filter ($25) and cabin air filter ($35) and go get them on Amazon Prime ($15) and ($9) respectively. 4951

Since driving Caddy's that last decade or so and all of them taking 8 qts I got used to paying a lot for oil changes-especially since this last one requires Synthetic. When I first got this last one I called around everywhere in KW and surrounding and they were all with $5/10 of each other at alittle over $100. I needed an inspection the other day and oil change and didn't feel like going to 2 different places so I found Lake Houston Automotive in front of Kroger in Atascocita.$70 something dollars AND they rotate tires and do some other stuff others do not do (and didn't try to sell me a bunch of stuff). I'd go if they were more expensive as I hate having to go to Discount and wait sometimes an hr for a rotation.They used Kendall oil vs Mobile ! which I googled in their parking lot and called my mechanic and it's the same as Mobile 1.I highly recommend them-for the $ savings and the included tire rotation. 4951

I think the upcharge has something to so with the filter and extra oil. 4951

Service station on the corner of KWD and Chestnut. Save some coin and get the filter and oil on Amazon. Oil and filter are cheaper for me on Amazon compared to Advanced Auto and that is with a military discount. I just change it myself though. Even doing that with full synthetic it's still about $60. I don't even want to know what places charge anymore. I imagine it's well over $100. 4951

@Ann2800: I recently went to Jiffy Lube ( I work for Shell and with the discount and coupon is was a good price).  They were sloppy, oily hand prints on the car door (inside and out) on the steering wheel and arm rest, Moved the seats so it got stuck, did a crappy job at washing the windows which is one of the reason they give for charging more.  I kind of signed off on Jiffy Lube when the manager wanted to charge a Senior Citizen when one of his employees (who was not doing anything at the time, not customers) helped her out of the busy street when she had a flat tire.

I've been going to flagship on 494 for a long time now. The oil change, car wash and the wheel cleaning with the randalls coupon always comes out to 38 bucks. Helluva deal.And...you can walk over to Nico's and have a few beers and a sandwich while flagship pimps yo ride! 4951
