Dealer Oil Change
I took my 2006 Sonata to the dealer this morning for the first oil
change since I bought the car. Fortunately this was a freebie in that
this was included when I bought the car, but the cost for the oil
change would have been $39.79 They also wanted to charge an
additional $25 for a multi-point inspection to check the condition of
belts, brakes, lights, hoses etc. which I refused to pay for. Have
any of you had a similair experience with this type of pricing?

I bought a used 2005 Sonata GLS VE in Ithaca, NY in December 2005.
FWIW, for the first oil change, I called around for prices (as it had been
while since I had a car).
The dealer charged $22.95 for oil changes with every sixth one free. This
was the lowest price I could find.

Re: Dealer Oil Change
I took my 06 Sonata LX to my dealership which had signs posted everywhere
saying "oil change $21.95" When I went to pay the bill was almost $40. After
raising hell I still paid almost $40. Their reason was ....It is a 6 cyl.!
and the filter cartridge is more expensive than a regular oil filter. They
said signs were for 4 cyl. cars even though it was not on the signs. One
more time..."Because it is a 6 cyl." what a bunch of crooks.

Re: Dealer Oil Change
I also had a free oil change coupon book, which they gave me $18 credit for.
They did the 'required' 7500 mile service, which included rotating/balancing
tires and adjusting the rear brakes (???). With 'shop supplies' and 'oil
and grease' charges, it cost me about $75 for my free oil change. Not
happy.

Re: Dealer Oil Change
Its 39.95 at my dealer....the local 10 minute lube joint in town (19.95 most
cars) doesn't yet stock the cannister filter element the v-6 takes. I
believe the sonata v-6 also takes 7 qts. of oil.

Re: Dealer Oil Change
Be careful about the oil filter. There's a tech service bulletin about the
'off brand' filters causing lifter noise because they don't have an internal
pressure relief valve and starve the hydraulic lifters. The service manager
said that a customer came in complaining of valve clatter and when they put
it on the lift, it had an after market filter. They voided his warrantee!
Put on a Hyundai filter and the clatter disappeared. Hard to believe.
Hyundai is very serious about doing what they recommend to protect the
warrantee. Same with Kia.

'off brand' filters causing lifter noise because they don't have an internal
pressure relief valve and starve the hydraulic lifters. The service manager
said that a customer came in complaining of valve clatter and when they put
it on the lift, it had an after market filter. They voided his warrantee!
Put on a Hyundai filter and the clatter disappeared. Hard to believe.
Hyundai is very serious about doing what they recommend to protect the
warrantee. Same with Kia.
