I personally think that is a rather high amount of km between changes so I called my dealership and they recommend to do every 8'000km. 8'000km seems a lot better then 12'000km so I asked what the price is...$84.99 for a semi synthetic :o What the hell!if it 34.99 for a regal oil change how the hell do they expect to charge $85??? Wal-Mart charges $50 for a full synthetic (don't know if I want to take it there) Can you guys give me any advice on this or a place that does good oil changes and doesn't charge up the #ss.
Thanks in advance

Costco - Castrol Semi-synthetic change with filter is 39.00. In any event, does the manual have a recommendation for "severe" usage - that's what I would go with assuming you're in GTA.
