quick question about my oil
well i live in chicago and it is about 10 degrees outside right now with snow all over ground
but i NEED to change my oil, and i already have the oil and filter, would it be a bad idea to change oil in the weather??
i can do it in my garage (not heated, but no snow on ground)
what do you guys and gals think?
(syth oil btw)

haha, nice.
next time, start up the car and let it warm up for a minute then change it, that way you get some heat near the engine as your hands are up there.
