:eek:
Some shops are SUCH hacks. If I didn't NEED it done today I'd have never gone with it.

I got one for almost half that in town at another spot, but I had to pick a shop in walking distance from my office. :boohoo:

I thought 100.00 was alot when I did my first Oil change. I guess when you need it you need it. Now I just change my own Oil.

Yep. Get a jack! The auto stores usually have good deals on oil/filter from time to time. Usually can get it all done for about $65-70.

That's about what it costs here in Canada at the dealer. Go to one of the "quick change" chains like Mr. Lube and you are looking at about 115.00

Try asking you dealer if you can bring your own oil and filter. Thanks to a tip from a fellow member on the forum (Jim), dealer will do mine for $12, if I bring my own oil and filter. Builds good rapport. Plus, they do good work, so I don't mind giving them all of my business. It's a win-win on both sides.

Dont get it done by a dealership or anything like that because they just screw you over. Learn how to do it yourself and go to an autostore or anywhere that sells mobil one and do it yourself. It saved me at least 40$ on an oil change.

I bought mobil 1 and filter at Wally world and the dealer changed it for $10.50. Not a bad deal. It also documents it for warrantee

Hey I went to walmart looking for this deal today. They have Mobil 1 for 6.37 per quart and said thats the best deal they ever have ($32 for 5). Plus they don't even carry Mobil 1 filters...

Actually Dad, It is $6.00 since I am always the one taking the day to drive your jeep to the dealership. But I have to admit, driving your car for the day is a blast.

I do it myself. 7 quarts of 0w-40 from Walmart $49. Pure One Purolator oil filter at autozone or advance auto, $6.99.
