Too long away from the dealership
#1
I've been doing my own maintenance on my '20 RS for years now.  I want to get the inspection done on the driveshaft, so I called my local dealer to schedule this work, which is covered under warranty.  Other than buying my parts there, I like to throw some business their way every now and then, so I asked about getting an oil/filter change at the same time.  They quoted me $407.  I asked to confirm that an oil/filter change now costs over $400.  I was told "that it encompasses the parts and labor for an oil change, as well as going through a multipoint inspection checklist to make sure there are no other issues that need to be addressed such as tire wear, brake pads, topping off the coolant level, etc." 

I know this post puts me squarely into "old guy griping about dealership prices", but is this an outlier, or is this what dealerships are charging these days?  This dealer was recently purchased by Sonic Automotive, so maybe the service writer is fresh from a Land Rover dealership?
