Doing regular maintenance, dealer starts hitting me with future stuff to do like wheel aligning , corrosion cleaning, but 160 to change a car engine filter sounds ridiculous, is this normal pricing?

    I had a dealer quote me around $50 or so for the air filter (honestly can’t recall if it was cabin or engine, but I think either are fairly equal difficulty on my Highlander).

    The OP’s quote does seem high, but also falls in line with common labor pricing practices.

    But yea, I paid that $50 to have it done then and there because I didn’t feel like dealing with it that day - then it was “done.” I typically do it myself, either one, because the filters are usually around $15-25 and changing them is one of the easiest things to change.
