In my neck-o-the-woods, most dealers charge about $100 for a basic oil change, more for synthetic. $50-80 labour, $10-15 filter, and then $3-10 per litre for oil.

On the C230, a Mobil 1 change is $50+$65+15 = $130 plus taxes and fees. They tack on another $45 to change the cabin dust filter and $30 for the filter itself. An "A" service can hit $300 without much problem.

Anyone still wonder why I do most of it myself?
