$150 for a fluid change? You mean complete system flush...the dealership wouldn't be that crazy to charge that much...and your friend that naive to pay it?

I bought a gallon of dia queen from the dealership for about $45. The dealer or other shops charge way to much for simple task we can do in our garage. Plus you can take more pride in your car. I even did my clutch myself with a friend. Saved about $900. That's a lot of lunch money.

another self clutch install over here...you definitely appreciate the car and mod a whole bunch more when you do it yourself.(especially when it works first time)
