yes, in my area an oil change is like $25 - $40 then add an extra $20 synthetic oil.

Is there some reason you skipped the year make and model of your car? We need that information to figure out how many quarts of full synthetic oil was needed to fill the crankcase and the oil filter that should have been used. The dealer of the car wouldn't have charged that much.

$51.00 labor? Just how many zerk fittings are ON that rig?

Why don't you change your own oil then. Its not hard.

Yes they are a little high. I just had my 04 F150 done with 7.5 qts of Mobile 1 full synthetic for $70.00 at Walmart. They also filled wsw fluid, checked pressure in all tires, vacuum interior.

Might be a tad high, I'm not sure that breakdown is accurate - could be - but I do synthetic also and it's usually in the $70's sometimes in the $80's with a free car wash if I go to this one place.

This is about what my son was paying when he had the BMW 5-series. I'm guessing you're not tooling around in a Kia Rio.

Sure does.
