Wow. My Z06 oil changes are $130 at the dealership using 10.5 quarts of Mobil 1 5-30 DEXOS and requiring a special fill procedure that only 1 tech is certified

Wow. My Z06 oil changes are $130 at the dealership using 10.5 quarts of Mobil 1 5-30 DEXOS and requiring a special fill procedure that only 1 tech is certified on, technically.
$120 for a wet-sump holding probably around half that is ridiculous. I don't care if they are filling it with unicorn jizz. That's insane. |

Wow, thread necro...
Anyway, $120 is not bad if you took a european vehicle out of warranty. My E92's oil change was $400 (out of warranty). $120 from my experience is really good.

I know, I know, but it can't get any worse, right?

Just go to Autozone, buy some Mobile 1 Extended performance 10w30 (It's a GL-4 oil) and do it yourself.
I do my oil change myself and it's a pain in the fkn ***... I can't get the oil filter out without taking off oil cooler lines from sandwich adapter... Good thing is i get to drain a lot of the oil out of the lines each time. Edit: Takes me about an hour... 30 minutes just waiting for oil to drain.

Hope you checked your mileage after because 4 hour oil change brings this to mind...

I think you are entitled to a free change for that price (making it about a 95 service) and that with that pricing, you would return. Otherwise, you will never be back and word will get out about this pricing issue. Just a thought, - b |

I'm now living in a townhouse, so it's out of the question these days. Chalk it up to being old.
