is everything going to cost
10 quarts of oil at a minimum of $10/quart -> $100. Figure with dealer markup, it's more like $120. Canister filter on an H chassis number? I would have expected spin-on, and the dealer is probably going to nick you $10 (canister elements can be had for < $5 from Rock Auto). Add in taxes and labor, and there you are.just a little over 2 months and 2000 miles I opted to get the oil changed,
I went to a dealer that I purchased the car from, it took about 1 hour and 10 qts of oil
and a canister filter later the Bill cam out too $192.00
alot more on this car??
That's nothing you should hear my neighbor scream about the cost of service on his Mercedes. The first 3 years was free on my BMWs.
So what’s the deal between the spin on and cartridge? I thought they updated and say to use cartridge now? I don’t know what’s on mine...
Why would you expect that?
Due to the "possibility' of spin on vibrating lose if not torqued properly, they swapped to the canister in early '17.
At least part of the 2017 production year was spin-on, no? At what point did they change over?
good question I did not know they were using canister oil filters... My GT350 build date is 9/6/17 (H6088)
whats your build date?
Mine is an 18 so I’m assuming its cartridge. I plan on stopping at dealer for oil and filter to have on hand. I want to change the first oil around 1200 miles or so.
Aahhh yes, but I think it was pretty early in ‘17. In fact, I personally don’t know anyone with a ‘17 and a spin-on filter.
BobSoFine has spin-on filter ( H1958 )
H1621 built 9/16 spin on
You can probably get a better deal online for your oil and filter. I bought mine (just changed it at 1150 miiles) from Amazon and paid $126 for the oil and $7+ for the filter. Don't know the dealer price but it's probably more. This was for Ford's full synthetic 5W-50.
