I know it seems that Hondas services are higher than Toyotas. I think they wanted 40.00 for just an oil change, and that is mostly likley not synth. oil

I changed the oil today in my 89 325i, cost $19.46.
"bartender, bring me 5 quarts of your cheapest 10w-40 and a filter made from bamboo..."

Why does everyone hate on the dealership?

I gotta make money somehow.

i dont hate the dealer. some things they are competitive on, but it seems hondas service prices are high than comparable dealers such as toyota. i mean the same plugs are double the price, its not like honda made the plugs.

I've got to do mine soon. I'm probably going to try the Amsol stuff in the diff. I use GM SFM for the tranny and straight up GTX 10w30 from Walmart. Always OEM filter though. I need to do my clutch fluid while I'm at it. Got some Superblue at home. I did the brake fluid last year.

I think i'm going to go with just OEM plugs, unless Wilbur or Chris says otherwise. Going to turn over 100k in the next week or so.
