I bought a 2011 Aspect 28B from a private owner.
He said he just had the oil changed.
I looked at the receipt the shop charged him 1 hour for the oil filter, oil and air filter change. DID NOT LUBE IT.
$120 per hour.
Charged him for 7.5 qrts of oil , it only takes 6.5.
Cheap $5 frame oil filter and charged him $9 for it.
And cheap frame air filter $16.32
Total came in at $75.10 parts and $120.00 labor !
$200.92 for a simple oil/filter and air filter change WOW!
Went and bought 7 qrts of full synth oil, Wix filter and changed it myself.
Less than $50.00 for parts and took me longer to drain the oil into my recycle jug then it did to change out the oil and filter..
So $120 labor WOW !
