I understand those places lose money (or marginal profit at best) on the oil changes and need the "extra" work to make a profit. That's why they ALWAYS suggest additional stuff.

I didn't realize they don't actually do the work !

lol that was sarcasm... if no one could tell... i'd do my own oil changes but i'm afraid that honda might void my warranty... so i have them do it, pay 50 bucks, and sit and watch them while they work

They can't void your warranty just because you don't pay them to change the oil.
