I had a dealer try to sell me one and quoted me $90!!! As he was trying to sell it to me, I looked it up on Amazon on my phone, $8.95 shipped. I showed him the phone and he stopped trying to sell me stuff with my oil change. I also told him that I knew how to replace it myself and it takes all of 5 minutes. These places should be ashamed! Trying to charge $90 for something made out of cardboard and paper.
This interests me. Went to the place where I bought my car (out of town) to get a recall replacement part (free), where they do a check of all systems. They showed a bunch of stuff needing flushing and replacing, including an air filter. It would cost me around $900 to do all that stuff through the dealership.
Car has an appointment for routine maintenance with our local mechanic tomorrow, hopefully he can do all the recommended stuff, and for much less!
