Call around, the price can/will very by demography… Check the owners manual (if you have it) for the correct oil, or google has info like that also…

Also, when asking for a price, be sure to specify that the engine needs 6 quarts of 5w-30 full-synthetic oil that meets the **Dexos-1** specification. The brands that qualify include _Mobil-1 Advanced_, but there are others.

I would advise avoiding fast-lube joints, which may not have that specification oil in stock, and might lie and tell you that they are using it.

Well, a 5-quart bottle of synthetic oil costs about $20 at Costco, more at regular stores, maybe slightly less from a wholesaler, but you get my point. A quality oil filter costs another $10 to $15. By the time wages for the technician, and costs of running a business are factored in, I’d say an oil change costs about $100.

Our GMC dealer is $101 for up to 8 quarts and includes tire rotation.
