How long does an oil change take?
I've never taken my car to get the oil changed, my dad usually does it and I have no idea how long it takes...How long does an oil change take?If you go to a fast place, as little as 10 minutes.How long does an oil change take?10-20 minsHow long does an oil change take?If you go to a quick change place 15 - 20 min but dont let them talk you into doing more, lots of time that is how they make more money for themselves and take advantage of you if you dont know much about carsHow long does an oil change take?Personally, I'd rather have it done at the car dealer where it might take longer and cost more. First, you'll get factory trained shop technicians using original equipment filters and fluids who are familiar with your model car. There can be a big difference in oil filter design and quality, and you don't want to take a chance damaging a $5,000 engine. Also, what if the %26quot;quickie lube shop%26quot; cross threads your oil drain plug and you end up losing all your oil on the highway and burning up your engine? You've got a much better chance of mistakes being corrected responsibly at your car dealer than at a quickie lube chain. The chain store will try to sell you lots of things you don't need in some cases because that's the way their business is set up to operate.

Who do you really trust to maintain and repair that $25,000 car you just purchased?How long does an oil change take?depeding upon the place...
Places that just change the oil nothing less 5 min-10 min.
Most quick lube/dealers are closer to 20-30 min. maybe more depending upon how many are a head of you but when you arrive, the longer time is because they do all the inspections,vac the car etc.they should give an idea of how long to do it.

I change my car oil myself and it takes me about 20 min, but I like to get as much as possible out, so I wait a bit longer if I got nowhere to go.

--Good luck---BMW 325i Oil Change, How much do they cost?I work for BMW and want to say... if it is a newer one, and you are AT 15K, it will be free under the maintenance program (as is brakes and other maintenance issues), but the oil change is usually about $90

I own and operate 3 Pennzoil oil changes in Michigan and we do BMW's and Mercedes all the time. The price I charge is about $65. The only reason is that you should use synthetic 5w40 oil (well that depends on the year, which you didn't mention). Also the oil filter is a little more than most. I cant believe that people pay as much money as these answers are suggesting. I hope you can find a trustworthy person to change your oil in your area. They are no harder than most any other car on the road. Like I said the only reason we charge more is for the filter and anyone that uses synthetic pays more whether in a chevette or a BMW.windows xp identifying rows
