I went to my local Freightliner dealer to price service:
Oil change ... 225.00
Fuel filter .. 75.00 each
Chassis lube . 58.00
These prices were parts and labor.
That is the price for a Freightliner truck. Motor homes are an additional charge by the hour for access to the filters, i.e. floorboards.
I went to Caterpillar and purchased the oil filter and secondary fuel filter for $38.00. The primary fuel filter, an Alliance by Freightliner, was $24.00. I tried to buy the PacBrake lube but they had none. I ordered it at a cost of $8.69 plus $8.95 shipping.
