What I can't get my head around is "Why"? Why would you take a "modified" 617 Diesel to a Quik Change Store. Those guys invariably screw things up and for odd ball stuff won't carry the right filters. Secondly, if you must use their service, bring your own filters. If they won't do it, move on. No car that is running, no matter how badly or overdue it is for an oil change, is not going to be damage more by an additional few hundred miles. Drive it until it is convenient to do it yourself or take it to a knowledgeable shop.
