Why is it that getting an oil change is soo expensive?? I went in to get an oil change 2 mths ago and it was $32.00 and today I called to set up an apt and it's $28.99. I remember it use to be about $20 only. Gosh I think I am going to start walking.Need an oil change on car?

It's easy to do an oil change yourself messy but easy you get a low pan and jack you car up put a rock behind a wheel so it don't roll, then crawl under your car and unscrew your oil plug and let all the oil drain in the pan after it's all drain but the plug back in it well screw in then find the oil filter unscrew it and let it drain in the pan have the new oil filter back on by screwing on then put in 4 quarts of oil since it is summer you use 10x20 oil.


then your done Now you know why it's so expensive 28.00 is check if you go to a walmart they do oil change and check all you fluids and tires for around 35.00

the cost of the crude oil has skyrocketed in the last few years. that is the main ingredient in the motor oil in your car, not to mention the diesel fuel used to transport it, among countless other things. when crude oil skyrockets the way it has, everything else going up as well.
Have you not read the headlines lately. Oil prices are at an all time high.





Duh!!! I think you screwed up your pricing. You wrote that your cost has actually gone down since the last oil change.
Oil is expensive because gas and other renewable resources are getting expensive
You can do it yourself for a LOT cheaper. About 15 bucks to be exact.
Well it isn't quite as expensive if you learn how to do it yourself. It's easy although it can be a bit messy.
INFLATION. the cost of everything seems to be going up.
do it yourself and it will be cheaper.

  1. I think car engine maintenance is important, you should check your car engine on regular bases & car engine oil you are using should be good quality car engine oil and information you shared is good.
