As mentioned above, it was the dishonesty that bugged me. If they had started the day saying the oil change was 135+tax/shop fees I would have gone elsewhere. My regular independent does a change with a Mann filter and shell synthetic for 60 bucks. And it's a local family who I am happy to support and refer.
I figured ten bucks more and I get a g20 loaner for free, and it is on the drive to work, sure why not.

Anyhow, after tax, my last oil change on the 335xi was $23.53. That's 7 quarts of full synthetic and a new filter. No rebates and no crazy sales. Beyond the oil and filter (with o-rings and crush washer), I'm not sure what other steps there are to skip.

I suppose I must stand corrected then, too.

Costco SN plus rated full synthetic now only $24.98 for 10 quarts. Makes $25 oil changes very doable with a real German filter, even!
