Oil Change - Watertown Ma?

Hey, does anyone know of a good in and out oil change near Watertown Ma? I seem to be working way too much and filling my weekends with racing/family stuff to do it myself these days...

any recommendations?

Greasy’s Garage

I Drive the hour from NH to get non DIY stuff done there!!
Just call first..they can usually fit in an oil change, But I think a couple of vacations are coming up in the next couple weeks!!

Your best bet is a local "Euro" mechanic. I would never trust a place like JiffyLube or any other franchise "mechanic" to do an oil change on any car let alone my Mini

Yeah, i wouldn't trust a Jiffylube.. hell i don't trust a jiffy lube.. but I always make sure they fill my car from the bottles not the pumps and I never leave their lot without double checking the drain bolt and level and I ask them to not check anything else... if they do its time .. if I had facilities/time I would do it in a heart beat...

Just had a tire patched at Sullivan Tire right near Wild ******* and they seemed like they knew what they were doing, were super friendly, and were quick. Might want to check them out. They also have really good yelp reviews.
