Actually, that is a rip. I buy my Mobil 1 at Walmart for $24+ and take my car to the dealer. They charge me $14 for a new filter and the oil change so I spend $38+ total.

 

Actually that is a rip !!! I pay 20 dollars for Mobil 1 and 4 dollars and some change for the OEM filter. I change it myself. It costs $25 + total and the used oil goes to Auto Zone....so no disposal fee.

 

The Pontiac G8 holds 9 quarts.

 

They also buy oil in bulk containers not quarts or gallons...so they get a break on the price that you don't so that helps the bottom line and remember if Wal-Mart sells a quart for $5 they are only paying $2.50.

 

to get my "FREE" service on the SS. An hour and a half into it the service manager comes to tell me since this is a turbo car it will require mobile 1. The "FREE" service does not include special oils. It will be about an extra $50!!! I tell him to wait a minute and I go ask the sales manager "where in the flyer does it say spacial oils are extra?" The sales manager looks for a while and says this is the first he has heard of this. Long story short they took care of the extra costs, but my "1 hour" wait time for oil change and rotation turned into 2 1/2 hours.

 

Because the local dealer gives me a "VIP discount" ($10 bucks off), I "only" pay a bit over $107 for my oil changes on my SRT10s. They require at least 10 quarts of Mobil 1.

 

yeah but sounds like after waiting 2 1/2 for a simple oil change your still losing out. sounds like you should start using another dealership to deal with.


my local oil change place does a full synthetic change for 50 bucks everyday price.

 

I am done with my original dealer...luckily I am shipping the car to Honolulu for the next 3 years.

 

5 qt jug of mobil 1 @ wally world is 21 bucks here plus filter of choice, less than 30 bucks for oil change done in 15 min in my drive w/ cold beverage of the day...sweet

 

Have you guys ever gotten an engine flush, or is this a scam and waste of money?
