That is ABSURD. Your service advisor is doing some sneaky *****. What dealership was this?

I got a quote for an out-of-FSS oil change for my S430 and it was $100. That's for frigging 9 quarts of synthetic.

Something is not right...

Oil changes are free for 4 years. Why would you pay? Check other service writers at the same dealer. One service writer at Laguna Niguel MB wanted 180 labor to replace two light bulbs. Another wanted $90 labor to replace brake pads and another wanted $48. It's crazy.

Be careful at the House, they tried to rip me off telling me my car needed $3,000 worth of work or it will stop working. Another dealer told me that there was nothing wrong with my car. I ran the car without their recommended repairs for 2 years without a problem. They low balled me on the oil change just to get me in the door. I will never go there again.
