If you can get your oil changed for less than $150 that's a deal.
Don't no how OP are getting it done for $110, but I'd wanna see the container the oil came out of.
I'm a firm believer in if its sounds to good to be true it normally is.
My son-in-law works for BMW, and he pays more than that just for the oil & filter.
He gets everything 10% over cost.
Just say'n

yea that's my point.
Oil itself (for the E9X M3) is pretty expensive, and we need 8.75 liter of them at least for a full flush oil changed.
