Some of this just isn’t worth the time or effort. Time is money, and sometimes it’s cheaper and easier to pay for warrantied work rather than do it yourself.
I can pay someone to change the oil and the oil filter and it takes them 15 minutes. I don’t enjoy doing it and it’s worth the money for me to pay someone else to do it. I don’t have to crawl under the car, or gather all the parts, or get filthy, or worry about disposing of the used oil properly.
And yet the state gives them a license to drive. And doesn’t bother enforcing traffic laws. To me that’s the real problem.
