Called Longo Lexus for first oil change and was quoted $90...is that right? I think this includes rotating tires (cannot do, staggered wheel setup), topping fluids (not necessary), checking brake pads (again not necessary since I bought the car CPO back in Feb. of this year). So basically, they're charging $90 just for oil/filter change. Can I just go over to Longo Toyota and do the oil change (I'm sure they also do all the checking)? Do they use the same oil/filter? I think I've read on this forum that they do or use something very similar, but want a definite answer.

Thanks.

 

Man, I just go to the same local shop and choose my oil. Runs me about $25.

 

wow thats crazy high, way too much in my opinion...

 

5 quarts of Mobil Synthetic 5W-30 = $20 Oil Filter = $3 Labor = DIY.

 

Hell no bro "Don't Do it"! u can get Mobile 1 synthetic for 40 bucks......I get Moblie oil and filters for only $24

 

Wow they are trying to rip u off . Get the oil yourself and do it yourself bro.

 

rookie - just say you want only the oil change and ask for the cost of that. It's $35 at my dealer I believe, which I find reasonable since they check fluids, clean the car nicely too. I'd rather have a Lexus dealer do it than try to save $5-10 by getting it done by some high school drop out at a Jiffy Lube type place.

 

Sounds like they're charging you for a minor service (5k, 10k, 20k, etc). Those tend to run anywhere from $100-$150. Yeah, expensive for an oil change plus a lot of inspections.

If you ask just for the oil change, they should charge $40-$50 (here in CA). I've done this at No. Cal. Lexus dealerships, b/c I like having my major services done down in So. Cal. at Keyes Lexus

 

GS oil change is $39.95 in GA. I do mine myself though.

 

Thanks everyone for the replies. I am going to go in and just ask for oil/filter change. Worst comes to worst, I'll leave if it's too much. Come to think of it, it might be a minor service, because the mileage is a little over 50K.

 

I do my oil change myself, but if you dont want to I would go to Toyota. Down here I think they charge like $30 and wont rip you off. Plus they do all the other inspections if you ask them to, no charge most likely.

 

Id pay that if I could keep the loaner for a week.

 

It's $40 for oil change at Longo Lexus. You should've specified you only wanted an oil change when you called.

 

It is an oil change after all, nothing special about it. Every car has to have them.

 

Sounds like japan prices.......... Wakos competition oil costs that much $90 over here and an oil filter about $12. Mobil is good thats what I use, still cost way more over here.
