Default even $50 with your own Mobil 1 is a little high. you should be able to get

a reputable place do it for about $30 with own oil and filter. i get mine done for around $20 with own oil & filter, but usually get something done at the same time as well.

Default Most places where I live have a $90 an hour charge......

no matter what they are doing - $100 oil changes with OEM filter and 5 q's of Mobil 1 are pretty common place.

Default Well it's either Diablo, Carlsen, Royal, Oakland, Livermore, Sonnen or.....

should I go on? My guess would be Carlsen but I could be wrong. Oh wait - I forgot Steven Creek :-)
