Oil change at Jiffy Lube, now car won't start?
Was in a hurry and going on a trip this weekend so I thought that I would have someone else change the oil. After they finished, they came in and asked if there was a special way to start the car. I came out and turned the key over, nothing. You can hear the starter solenoid clicking, but the car won't start. They ended up push starting it, but that doesn't solve the problem. I'm wondering if anyone has a similar situation arise. Thanks

If it push started and ran fine after, then you probably have a rotten battery. It just happened to
be on it's last legs while you got your oil changed.
Even though quick lubes are pretty awful, I doubt they ruined your battery.

Fixed!
Bastards diconnected a vacuum hose. They took out the air filter to show me how dirty it was so I could buy a new one and screwed it up. Oh well, got a free oil change with synthetic.
