      How? I went to get my oil changed and I got high milage synthetic because I have over 207,000 miles on my car, I would have changed it at home but I don’t have any of the tools to lift the car up and get the oil change done myself nor do I know anyone that can do it.

      Today’s service cost me over $100. It’s crazy!! Not even at the dealership either!!

        I’m in AK – mine was $99 which included a 26 point inspection and topping off fluid.

          Call around next time and see who does it the cheapest. Always look for coupons also.

            Yes, it’s quite costly now. I range about $60-70 each oil change. My vehicle is 20 years old.

                At least with synthetic you only have to change the oil every 10,000 miles

                  It’s expensive. I will pay an insured dealership. Store auto service can cause damage.

                  May be cheaper in short term but really expensive long term.

                    We have a local dealership that gives great deals on oil changes, ask on your local chatter page, there is a quick change place in town that does it for $35, probably $50 with synthetic

                      I check Groupon and dealer specials. I use full synthetic and can usually get a change for about $40-50 that way.

                      Regular price is $80-100.

                        Think of it this way: it is preventative care and maintenance, it’ll help prevent car issues and keep your car healthy in the long run.

                          Thays about what I pay at Valvoline and they always want to sell some other thing too.
