09GL320 10k service and The Edmunds Maintenance Guide

The Edmunds shows a total $138.26 + tax for the 10k service on a 09GL320 and I plan to DIY the Adblue part. The estimate looks reasonable to me, however it seems significantly lower than what other people have posted on the forums (range from $250 to $350), is there anything the guide is missing?

Mobile 1 at $4.70 a qt? I think the dealers charge $7.00 per qt. That adds $33.00. Oil filter was $27.00 instead of $18.00. Edmunds doesn't recognize dealer mark up. Not very realistic.
