My local dealer wants $9.00 + tax (9%) in Santa Monica, CA per quart . I could get a gallon of Mobil 1 for $27 + tax + gas. What are you paying for toyota oil and should I just run mobile 1? It's for a gen II, a friends car. Thx! Turn off signatures in Tapatalk Tapatalk
Don't let the Dealer hold you up. It's just oil. Use Mobile 1, or any other 0-20 synthetic oil and you will be fine. A lot of people want to rant about oil and I am sure you will get a lot of advice, but again any oil that meets the Specs. will do just fine.
Cheers DickD. I swear though others have paid like $6 for toyota oil. I'm also curious if I'm getting fleeced. Turn off signatures in Tapatalk Tapatalk
It's very strange to see higher US prices. Doubly considering it's for (smaller) US quart... From our nearby dealership Toyota 0W20 is around $6Can per liter. Sometimes a little under, sometimes a little over. For starters, try a second dealership, that seems really steep.
I think its just the area, I have tried another dealer and it was more expensive I picked up a toyota oem oil filter today and gasket (crush washer) and it was $8.15 out the door.
The filters cost about the same up here. From my latest part's invoice, all Canadian $'s: liter of Toyota 0W20: $5.65 filter: $8.22 oil pan drain bolt washer: $0.95
