They charged me ~$45 for the oil and the other $30 was labor, taxes, supplies, etc ... not sure if they would go for the BYOO method. I guess you could always ask!
I read a thread on here that you could bring your own if you ask. I always pay $23 for an oil change at my dealer using their oil. Thats with labor and everything.

That is a great deal! you cannot even buy Mobile 1 at Wal mart here for that price. It costs me ~$30 for oil and filter plus taxes here.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil, It tastes the best and helps lower cholesterol.
...I use Mobil1 5W/50. But I was thinking of using mineral oil because it can also be used as a lubricant laxative when you’re not feeling too good. ...
I love Mobil 1 and am running Mobil 1 Extend Performance, but after getting addicted to Bobistheoilguy.com I am thinking of getting any synthetic on sale.
I change it myself and it still costs almost $40.

Thanks everyone, I have been a Valvoline guy for a long time but when I had the oil changed (if they really changed it) I have not been satisfied. I am not down to 50% yet and it looks real dirty. So I will be changing now and using Mobil 1.
Again Thanks

Mobil 1 all the way....I do all my oil changes myself now and I am at 50% with Mobil 1 5W30 from Costco and just changed the oil filter today! I have decided to go the full 100% on the D.I.C. with only Mobil 1 and change the oil filter midstream at 50% just because the oil filter is so small!!! I have been using synthetic from day one pushing it to 100% on the D.I.C. .....24,000 miles so far and not a hiccup!!!
And I have never had to add oil.... no significant oil loss in 10K!!!!

If I bring my own oil I wonder what the dealer will charge for labor and filter?
Just went to the dealer for change with my own 5 gal. of oil.. He charged me $9.98. That was with a filter.
GREAT DEAL.

Mobil 1 5W30 and use Bouch filters. Change the 1st filter around 60%, oil and filter around 20%. 25K+ and I am on my second oil change, average around 10k between changes. I change it myself at the hobby shop on base.
