the time has come to change my oil... I was quoted at a local german autobody shop for 76 dollars to get it changed with everything.

How hard is it to change the oil yourself.... How much would the oil and filter be?

I am not a car expert, but i could change the oil on my tahoe by myself?

Any ideas?

7 quarts of 10w-60 oil @ $8 or $9 per quart
$12-15 for the filter.

Process is simple.

this process is very easy, the oil filter is that silver disc looking thing on top of the engine, it should be easier than changing your tahoes oil

Make sure that price includes the correct oil.

:werd: What he said. $76 is below parts cost (at least what you can buy the parts over the counter for). I'd be suspicious that he's going to throw regular 3-series oil in there.
