umm... the filter a rings are about $9 - the full filter assembly (which you don't need) is $50.

Oil is about $5 a quart (it takes 8.5 quarts) so about $45.

Either way they are charging way too much.

it will cost you $54 for the filter, o-rings and oil... So ask them where the other 100+ dollars going?

The $75 is way closer to where it should be.

Now - this is what your maintenance log book should show needs to be done for schedule A :

1. Change Engine Oil and Engine Oil Filter (as said parts are about $54)

2. Lubricate hood hinges, latch and secondary latch (sound like something they will probably try to charge for)

3. Reset FSS display (should be considered part of the oil change - heck you can do it yourself)

4. check windshield wipers and washer system (somthing that every quick oil change place checks for free)

5. Check fluid level for engine cooling system, hydraulic brake stem power steering system and windshield wiper system (hmm.. those wipers again - once again all this stuff has been topped off at every quick oil change place I have ever gone to.)

6.Inspect brake hoses and frontand rear brake pads for lining thickness (bascially they are suppose to see if your brakes are worn out - I can't see them charging for this myself)

7. Inspect tire presusre, tire condition and wear. Correct if nessussary. (basically they put air in your tires, later they will try to sell you some - This was always a courtousy check at my other dealers)

8. Inspect body for paint damage (every 2 years). (??? checking for rust or bubbles I guess...)

9. Check Chassis and supporting body parts for damage and corrosion (every two years). (same junk as above.)

10. Retighten steering locking golds (50,000 miles or 4 years.) (I guess they won't be doing this the first time)

11. Check condition of driveshart flex discs (50,000 miles or 4 years.)(I guess they won't be doing this the first time either)

12. Replace fuel filter and air filter element (60,000 or 4 year) (yet another one they won't be doing)

13. Change teh automatic transmission fluid and filter, using shell 3403 automatic transmission fluid, afterwhich it is filled for life (80,000). Manual Transmission is filled for life from the factory. (OK - this one has me on the fence - are they saying the need to do this on the first visit or is this only suppose to happen at 80,000 miles??? - you might get stuck paying for this one - someone chime in - glad I have a manual!)

14. Replace spark plugs (100,000 miles) (dang I may never have to change mine)

15. Replace engine coolant using Extended Life Coolant (100,000 miles) (woo hoo! - yet another thing I will probably never have to have done).

So basically top fluids, change oil and oil filter, and you may need to do the tranny fluid change (once again someone chime in).

hope that helps,
