Default Oil change price?

Curious what others are paying for oil change at the dealer. Going in next week and don't want to get screwed!

Dealer ?!?!? :U

For Gawd Sakes...Don't Do IT!!!

I'd get a set of ramps & jack stands before I'd take my car to a dealer...The never let the old oil drain long enough.

Corvettes of Houston: $55
Local Chevy dealer I asked: same thing

Doing it youself isn't too tough, but I understand if that's not your thing

Damn, wish I lived in Houston.
Best local place I've found here (Tony's Corvette) = $75.

My dealer tried to charge me $70. :nono: :nono:
Mine is covered under the GM smart care plan which I get for free when I bought the car. And that is the only reason I take it to the dealer for oil changes. Otherwise I would do it myself.

my dealer charges $21, but i bring my own oil they supply the filter. which saves $20. usually runs around $45-50 total. hey i would change my own oil but for $10 let someone else stand under my car for an 30-50 minutes.

Local dealer - Smith Chevy only charges $11 for the labour.
So about $25 per oil and $4 per filter amounts to $40.
