What is the going rate for an oil change? (includes 4 litres of Meguin oil, oil filter, air filter, labor)

Usually about $100 for mine at PPP Auto - just checked, it also takes 4 litres, so should be around about the right price. I had other work done each time, so the labour cost not 100%, but mine tended to be about $10 if I take off some of the other work with my best estimate on how long those took.

Probably can be cheaper, I never tried the Total garages which also do oil changes, etc. I usually keep mine at PPP as they know the car & tend to work on Range Rovers & the ilk so spares aren't hard to source either.

I was quoted $72 total (synthetic oil, oil filter, air filter, labor). Seemed a bit steep, especially the labor part of it. But then again, it has been many years since I actually paid for an oil change.
