Question Oil change situation

Its time for my first oil change. 3400miles. I dont have alot of time. The local dealers all say 7 days before i can bring it in. what would you do? Wait the 7 days, change the oil yourself (but i dont have the time), or bring it to a place like "expressway". Are there warranty issues? Thanks.

If you have the oil and a filter it will take you about 25min to chage it yourself.

Be advised, they have Godzilla puting the oil filters on in the factory be prepaired to sweat a little getting it off for the first time.

LOL, whew that was a good one. Sorry for the useless reply, but it made me laugh. Unfortunately, it's also true, and I always thought they finally killed that mutant gorilla. Maybe they ought to sick Rodan on him. I don't like having to work to get my oil filter off.

I would just wait the 7 days. Will not harm anything.
