My Car needs a tune up, oil change and a wheel alighnment how much?

I drive a 4 door Mitsubishi Mirage ES its a small car. I want to have an idea of what this will cost me before I go into the shop.My Car needs a tune up, oil change and a wheel alighnment how much?
It's going to depend totally on the shop you take it to. An oil change roughly runs around 19.95 where I live. The tune up could be expensive depending on how many plugs you need, and the wheel alignment shouldn't be too bad. But I'd expect to spend at least 100.00 for all 3 services. (It's probably going to be more, but just trying to give you a ball park figure) Another tip - if you take it to a dealership it will cost you more than if you took it to an independent mechanic.My Car needs a tune up, oil change and a wheel alighnment how much?
Ok tune up cost me 74.00,then oil change is 26.00 and that is the highest.Alighnment is anywhere from 40.00 to 60.00 dollars.So around 150.00 to 200.00.Wear a low cut blouse.Us woman need to pull out all the stops.hahahaha
...around $200. Get an estimate for what you want done before they do the work. Tell them to call you, if the work goes over the estimate, when they actually work on the car.
Aligment $69.95. Oil change $12.95-$17.95. The oil change should include a vehicle inspection. The tune up depends on what exactly needs to be done, the car's mileage and such. If you just want a routine change of spark plugs, probably about $40. If you are having a problem with the way the car is running (ie, running rough or stalling), then expect to pay anywhere from $50-$90 to have the car diagnosed, plus whatever repairs are needed. Check your local paper or look in your mail for coupons.
depending on your location


100 to 225 dollars
The best thing to do is call around to different shops to get an estimate. Most shops charge from $50.00 to $70.00 an hour for labor. I would actually be much cheaper if you know someone who knows how to do a tune up and an oil change. Most likely you will have to buy the parts and he/she will install them for less money than shops charge. For the wheel alignment you will have to take it to the shop. It has to get hooked up to a machine for it to be adjusted.
I say it will be at least $200. depends on where you go really, if you do not know of a good place, shop around.
Most likely around $200. Be careful many shops will try and take advantage of you.
