Ask them for a loaner car. You can work with them and schedule the work for a day when they can give you a loaner.

My blackberry goes crazy when I type really fast. That happens often but usually I catch it and correct it.

I had it done in July at Park Ave. Lotus and it was $200.00

Manhattan Motorcars, from whom I bought my Elise, said an oil change would run $400.

Oops. Wrong dealer. I'm talking about Park Avenue Lotus in Maywood, New Jersey. The OP asked about Park Place Lotus somewhere in the northwest. Sorry.

Does changing your own oil void warranty? It's not like an oil change is covered under warranty.
