If you took your car to have the oil changed, and they charged you $500, and itemized things like a rag costing $10, you wouldn't think too highly of that, would you? Even if you could argue them down to $29.95

............if they give you an itemized invoice that lists things they don't actually do (just to total to what they want to charge you) you can get a partial refund.
.......The itemized bill will say something like "up to 5 quarts of xxx motor oil" and then charge you for 5 at $3.90/quart .It's right there on the invoice....... even though my (your) car only takes 3.8 quarts. .also is the fact that they list filling your wiper fluid as a N/C but there is a $1.50 entry in the itemized column....then they also list disposing of the old filter at N/C even though there is another $1.50 entry in the itemized column. Tell them you just filled the wiper fluid, want the old filter to dispose of it on your own and that you will only pay for 3.8 quarts and you can get nearly $8 back. Nothing they can do since it all right on their own invoice. If they resist......file a formal complaint with whatever organization (DMV in N Y) that monitors
these places. They will have to not list prices for the itemized items (change their invoice scheme) or lose.
