Ya its outrageous. I cant believe it.
I changed it before but I wanted them to check all the fluids but they hurry so quickly that I really doubt they do that much. Its a huge ripoff.

If nothing else go to Pep Boys or someplace similar, it is really hard to screw up an oil change. I always get mine changed because I don't want to deal with the waste oil.

Bonk fell for the Jiffy Lube scam. The 19.99 oil change gets you in there, then they come at you with a list of all of the other stuff you 'need'. It's a scam. Just take it to the dealer. It's ten bucks more, their technicians are well paid and knowledgeable, and you get much better service.

Damn that's a ton of money for an oil change.
I have a service that comes to my house and does them here, and they only charge me 40 bucks per vehicle.

Nope. I had quick lube place somehow dump oil in my alternator once. Two hundred and fifty bucks later, I was wishing I had gone somewhere else. There are tons of horror stories about those places, not getting the drain plug tight, forgetting to put an oil filter back in, etc. Those guys are making minimum wage and rushed like hell. It's best just to go to a regular mechanic or do it yourself.

I go to a drive through place near where I work, it is $65 for a 3 gallon oil change. They check all the fluids, the tire pressure and do a quick wear check on things like brakes and hoses.
