My #MotorOilMatters (MOM) oil change

Hey guys. Remember my post awhile back (giveaway) on Motor Oil Matters (MOM)? Well as a follow up to that post. I was able to get an oil change with the gift card I received.

Here's a picture of my "baby"

I took this on Instagram, which I am having fun with lately.

Anyway, I looked on the Motor Oil Matters website  to check if there was a MOM licenced distributor in my area. After putting in my zip code, nothing came up.

But that is ok, because I decided to study/print up a copy of the MOM checklist that I had. Remember that from my other post? Well if not here it is again:

I decided to go to Walmart - because last oil change that is where my husband took it, and it is right up the street from me. I went over everything on the checklist. And I am very happy with how it turned out. And I am also proud of myself, because I was able to do it myself, and not rely on my husband to do it for me.

I should be set for another 6 months! Check out the MOM website for yourself for all kinds of tips and information!

Also follow them on Facebook & Twitter.

Disclosure: I had previously received a GC from Motor Oil Matters for an oil change. All opinions are my own. 

Motor Oil Matters (MOM) $50 gift card Giveaway

Hi guys I have a great giveaway for you. Motor Oil Matters (MOM) is a new consumer education and industry watchdog program by the American Petroleum Institute. This nonprofit organization has been established to stress the benefits of quality licensed motor oils and call on to the carpet those who engage in deceptive practices.

With the summer driving season ramping up, MOM wants to remind you to be in the know when it comes to motor oil changes.

To help you know what questions to ask on your next oil change, MOM has made up this checklist. Please enlarge for better view (or click here for pdf version: checklist)

Here is some more info. for you:

• AAA expects between the major summer holidays of Memorial Day and Labor Day to aid over eight million motorists, and cautions drivers that auto maintenance is key to avoiding summertime travel breakdowns. Ensuring quality motor oil in your car is one way to prevent road trip problems.
• Motor Oil Matters, or MOM, a new consumer education and industry watchdog program by the American Petroleum Institute, has been established to stress the benefits of quality licensed motor oils and call on to the carpet those who engage in deceptive practices.
• Service-locators can be quick to offer discounted services to people who are looking to reduce their automotive maintenance costs.  Make sure your service provider is pouring quality motor oil into your car before you decide on a cheaper deal.

I am definitely going to bring this checklist along with me when I get an oil change. You should too! Now MOM wants to offer one of my readers a $50 visa gift card to help you with your next oil change.

I'm going to use my $50 gc to get an oil change. And I will be having another post on that soon. So check back!
