Dealer charged me $90 for an oil change!
Is this normal? $15 for labor $70 for oil (what kind of oil can be that expensive), this sounds crazy to me... I didn't complain too much because they agreed to change the blower motor on warranty even though they couldn't actually hear the squeaking noise I was complaining about. But seriously...

Yup that normal. The camaro takes 6 quarts of synthetic oil. Stuff gets expensive.

sounds about right, looks like you got a discount on the labor too
DIY will save you about 1/2. |

I just paid ~$80 for an oil change at Express Lube. 8 quarts of Mobile 1 aren't cheap.

Yep, that's the right price. I paid $80 last week. $67 for oil $5 for the filter, and the rest was taxes. They didn't charge extra for labor.
