Dealership oil change

03springer · 03-14-2014, 10:34 AM

Holy crap!! 124.00 for an oil change at the dealer. That's after knocking off 40.00 for a coupon that I had. 75.00 labor? come on... only have 4000 miles on it so I figured I`d let them do it. Not again

I do it at the local Chevy dealership Quick Lane. They have Mobil 1 and I bring my own oil filter in case they don't have an AC Delco PF1237 on hand. I also keep a little envelope of crush washers in my glove compartment.

If you've got a place to work on the car, get yourself a floor jack and some jack stands (or ramps). Mobil 1 runs me $25 for 5 qts at Walmart, so my oil changes typically run me 30-45 minutes (depending on how long I let the oil drain) and about $35.

i buy my oem filters and crush washers in like those 10packs at ebaystores for super cheap. i too pay no more than $35 per change.

So without the coupon it would have been $164? For an oil change? Never go to that dealer again.

It must have included things like tire rotation and fluid checks and other stuff for that money. If it did not - you are getting ripped off.

Tire rotation? On a Z?

karotZ · 03-14-2014, 12:12 PM

OP, that's close to what I paid for an oil change, transmission oil change, diff oil change including redline oil to all of it. Don't go back to that dealership. When I used to go to my dealer, they charged $75. Now I pay $35 when I dont feel like doing it.

kenchan · 03-14-2014, 12:16 PM

be funny if there's like a customer type classifiation and prices associated with it

no clue customer = $165

sort of clueless customer = $125

educated customer = $85

diy type customer with angry tone

= $55

#2 is Clueless customer w/ coupon = $125

*I'd really like to know though, what they said was being completed for what the OP paid for

I guess I had my wife's Edge Sport in my head, since she asked me to make an oil change appointment.
