that might be about average depending on where ya live

those are not to cheap most of the time

But i would just do it you self it is not that ahrd to do and the hardest thing is the pan full of tranny juice .

but once out of there take the pan and install a drain plug and makes it a lot eaier

also some of the Jiffy lube places do it and they are most of the time cheaer then the mech. shops. But they get it done faster and you can watch them to make sure they dont do it wrong.

Also some of the auto parts stores that do service do it to.

Just dont let them sck it up threw the dipstick and not change teh filter in the pan. I ahve seen them do that crap alot. If they do then you mise well not even bother to have ti done. clean fluids on a dirty filter just make a dirty fluid again

Jiffy lube will do the flush but they won't drop the pan.

private party seller huh? Yeah, that sucks. When I bought my Taurus, I ended up paying nearly $600 for reg and taxes. That's the nice thing about living in Oregon, no tax[8D]

Yeah, relation.

Car is SUPER clean and WELL maintained. I HATE the color but it was so clean and the price was more than right, soooo.....

I'll admit to being a GP man, but the SS has grown on me some.
