You can save a boatload of money doing a lot of these simple jobs yourself. Get a Bentley manual, the 101 projects book or just search this site's DIY section.
You took the words right out of my mouth Clickman. I was thinking the same thing before how did he see it when all he did was put the car on the elevator to change the oil and oil filter. Could he have seen it from there?

He charged me $23 for the oil filter.
$126 for the oil and a $126 labor.

Thanks for the links guys
