I only go to the dealer for oil changes because I got lifetime free oil changes with the Fit. Otherwise I would do it myself.
As for the quicky oil change places, stay away from them like the plague because they're infamous for making up problems about the car - I remember there was a investigative report by a news channel where they had their car inspected by a certified mechanic with nothing wrong with the car; can you guess what the people at the lube place (I think it was Ez-lube in this case) said? I even ran into this problem myself when I used to have a Ford Mustang 05 - I was in a hurry and the guy who I was paying was insisting that my rear differential fluid needed to be changed (on a car with less than 15,000 miles, and on the basis that the color of the fluid was "dark"), and that my air filter NEEDED to be changed to a K&N drop in filter. It was ridiculous.
