Hi guys i was wondering how much a oil change is for a lr3

Thanks in advance

 

An oil change is a pretty generic thing, usually you can get one for about 30 bucks (+/- depending where you take it). It also depends what oil you use, and who does it. Just bring it into a shop, they'll let you know.

 

I paid 500.00 last month for an oil chainge from the dealer ..............HAHAHA
no seriously probably 30 bucks how much was it to change it in your last vehicle?

 

Actually, it is a fair question. I've read that the filter and drain plug are behind the skid plate, and the only way to access is to remove it (about a dozen bolts need to be removed). I'm sure those 10 minute oil chnage places will not honour their $30 fixed price once you drive up and they need to start removingparts just to change the oil. Or am I wrong - is the skid plate not needed to be removed?

Anyway, doesn't matter for me. I'm planning to do them myself, just as I do my Hummer H2. Oil changes are easy, especially on a truck with more clearance like the H2 and the LR3.

Thanks

 

yes you have to remover the skid plate. I asked the quicklube when I was getting the truck done they said they would not charge extra for removing the skid plate
but they are all different

 

had my wife ask she how much for an oil change at the dealer, had the land rover lettering replaced on the front. they told her 120.00 for an oil change

 

yeah, but c'mon, that was probably for the Super Slippery Oil, not just the plain oil right? [sm=smiley36.gif]

 

I don't know and she was smart enuf to say no. I think it included checking the blinker fluid and rotating the the window seals.[sm=trust_me.gif]

 

$50 at Walmart auto center for 8 qts of Castrol 5W30. I had to bring my own filter though as they did not have it ($7 ish at Advanced auto parts). That includes all the other "checks" they do too, like tire pressures, vacuuming, wash windows, check fluids, lights, and other stuff.

 

The dealerships use Castrol 5w30 correct?
