$325.00 oil change???

[Heavy Foot]

London Toyota just charged me $325.00 for an oil change 1.5 hours labour. What do you guys pay?.. I could do the change myself, but I like having all the service records. $325 Canadian money. F*cking angry.

Dealer quoted me 85. 325 is crazy territory.

It takes me max 30 minutes and that's including putting the car in the air and back down.

Dealer saw you coming from a mile away. Use a indy shop if you can't do it yourself. If you have the records, it don't matter who does it.

Yeah that's a scam. Write to Toyota if they don't correct it. That's insane.

Canadian money = Monopoly money?

But London is in England.. the bloody hell?

wow…i changed mine with Amsoil and thought $100 was alot.

I pay $125 at my local BMW dealer. I’ve had 2 oil changes there thus far.

The oil change on this car couldn't be any easier. You don't even have to remove the belly pan, and you can do It by jacking up only one side of the car and using a single jack stand. I also am provided complementary beer in my driveway, and I think I paid $65 for my last Liquid Molly oil change kit and autozone will take the used oil.

Now If you simply don't have the means and need it done at a dealer, sounds like someone above is paying $125. Arguably not a bad price if you aren't stuck at the dealer for hours....without beer.

I just got this offer from my local Toyota dealership. It's for 3 oil changes. It's good for 24 months.

You sure it was just an oil change or your 3rd year annual maintenance. I just went in for oil and brake fluid change and full check on the car and it came out to about $300 plus tax.

Not sure about any easier as on mine, the oil filter canister made a mess when removed. I waited for it to drain only it drained outside, not inside. WTF. I think age discrimination here..

The easiest is my Forester and WRX. Fumoto valves equipped, no drip when filter removed from top.

Idk what you did wrong hommie. I cracked my filter housing open after draining the oil and fill cap was off. Didn't get a single drop anywhere. Though it was pretty damn hot.

Exactly. If you are spilling oil everywhere with the filter, you are doing it wrong.

This was what I paid. Probably the book values.

No shit.. lol. But I've done German cars like this for decades so not sure what happened with my Supra. Like I said, age discrimation..
