Oil Change Price

[Robb3057]

Just dropped my 2018 3.0L Eco Diesel off at the dealer here in Mobile, Ala. oil change and rotation ordered.
Final cost: $329.00
My last change in December 2021 was $151.00.
Let’s go Brandon

Higher costs elsewhere. Global market for oil and its associated products. Some genius attached a sovereign nation and the rest of the civilized world is trying to not be drawn in to war but penalizing the country that started the war. This hurts the entire planet. I guess some argue evil should be allowed to go unchecked so we all don't feel discomfort.

UPDATE: Advance has all the supplies I need to do my own oil change. Price less than $90. I will revisit that dealership Monday.

Seems like the only Brandon here is your dealer! (and maybe the fools who pay those prices w/o checking! Did you have them replace the in cabin air filter too!

First of all I’m not a fool. That price was dropped on me. That dealership has done all of my service since 2019, save one when I was on vacation. I have never paid over $151.00. As far as I know I don’t have a cabin air filter.
I’m going to reserve my opinion of this situation until after I speak with the service manager. It is possible there was a computer glitch that did this. The service writers of today are glorified secretaries that simply punch buttons on a computer.

I mean, that's a huge jump for sure. Let us know what they say for the increase.

This I agree with.

Ram began installing Cabin filters in late 2016. Pretty sure you have one

Thanks for the info. I will check on that.
