Oil Change Tires Plus?

I have an oil change at Tires Plus tommorow. It's my first one by myself. So how exactly does it go? I know it sounds like a stupid question. But do I just drive up to the door and they'll tell me to come in? Or should I go inside and talk to someone first (if I have an appointment)? Do I need to bring my own oil? It says they use 5 quarts? Does a 2004 toyota camry need more than that? I know these are weird questions but I just want to make sure I know what I'm doing. ThanksOil Change Tires Plus?Just go inside and the guy you are here for your oil change appointment and no you don't have to take your oil or filterOil Change Tires Plus?Depending on the set-up of the shop, you might just sit in the car %26amp; watch them work. If they have a pit that you drive over, you just drive in %26amp; over the pit, and sit back. The guy will come to the window %26amp; ask what you want, %26amp; you just say 'oil change'. If the car has been in that shop before, they'll have a record of what weight it took, %26amp; just do it again. They supply everything, all you need is the $$$$$. In some shops it's okay to get out %26amp; watch, %26amp; I always do, but that's up to you.Oil Change Tires Plus?Park %26amp; go inside to let them know you've arrived. They will tell you when and where to pull up the car. They provide the oil and the filter. Have the oil filter also changed if it's been 10,000 miles since it was last changed. They have charts which tell them what type of oil you need %26amp; how much.

They may offer a choice of regular or premium oil. Premium is good for extended milage between changes and heavy useage. Regular is ok for average mileage between changes and normal useage.
