Been quoted £150 by local dealer to change engine oil and filter and diesel filter, u guys think this is not bad? It is the v6 and they are using fully synthetic. The parts alone are about £100 ive been told.

thats expensive
oil filter and diesel filter are about £19 from eurocarparts
oil about £30
so way over priced
trade club prices are:
fuel filter £7.40
oil filter £30.00
Air filter £5.50
oil £30
hth
they will argue that they carry out a 'safety check'... gave me a warning on my rear tyres at 5mm of tread!!
Blooming heck, so about £67 for the parts trade card, which I have I might have to rethink this! Thanks lads.
Its about right for a main dealer, but expensive if its a indy or doing it yourself.
The trickiest part I've found is getting the oil filter housing off without the special tool VX use. I've found one online for 20 quid which I hope is coming today so I can change mine. Everything else I've tried hasn't done a thing and it's not like you can just hammer away at it...
Didnt national tyres do a oil and filter change

Maybe worth a look, they can also do your Fuel filter too.
I have to advise I didnt like the Customer Service I recieved, but thats not to say they are all bad, like the one in West Brom.
Good Luck
