So it seems that Pep Boys completely forgot the oil and filter change.

They first tried to tell me the oil sensor was fuxx0rzed.

I told them I didn't care, it was worse and making odd noises after they touched it, they were going to look at it and tell me what was wrong.

So they did.

The guy who fixes it comes out and tells me the car was "burning oil".

I don't see how a car with a fresh oil and filter change could burn through all of that oil in 4 days, especially without anyone noticing anything.

I got back in the car, and they'd left a sheet of paper doing their diagnostic checkup things on it.

Apparently the oil filter (which was supposed to be changed) was dirty/torn/missing.

Go figure.

And on the receipt, they gave me five quarts of oil and a new oil filter.

In short, I'd been driving around on a timebomb. Stupid Pep Boys trying to kill me.
