Whomever is charging you anything over $85.00 is robbing you silly. I just got mine done here in Northern Va area from a dealer. Ester oil change was 85.00 (45 minutes, out the door).

Check the prices in your city, some service departments are just crooks and can't justify the price hike when you ask them. Simply say no thanks and go elsewhere. You can also go the Parts Departments at a dealer, purchase Ester Oil or go online and do it yourself or a good indy shop.

Go some research before walking in a dealer service dept. Common sense.
