How can you ask that and not say where you live? Do you think the cost is the same across the entire country (if you live in the US or Canada)? Labor rates vary regionally as do the cost of the fluids that would be used.



Usually you can have that done at a place that specializes in those quick oil changes. They have a variety of services related to automotive fluids. See this site:

If you do you will note that there are no prices quoted. That is so the local outlet can have a standard rate for each service but can occasionally offer promotions to increase business. Find a local outlet like this (or similar) and call them. They will be happy to quote a price.How much $ to change all fluids in car ? ?
This also depends on what kind of car you have, and if you're doing the labor yourself. I'd say between 300-500. Go for the lower end if you're doing all the work yourself, or higher end if it's a dealer. The trans. will be the most expensive part.How much $ to change all fluids in car ? ?
Depends on what kind of vehicle and where you're at but probably $300-500. Get estimates from two or three places. Many shops/dealerships have preset, discounted prices on scheduled maintenance.How much $ to change all fluids in car ? ?
I would figure around a grand, rotors calipers pads (front brakes) , drums wheel cylinders shoes(rear brakes) , possible new fuel lines if they are rotting out,1 hr min. for brake line flush plus fluid,anti freeze flush plus new anti freeze make sure system is pressure tested.You have have to add in disposal fees for fluids, brake and anti freeze.transmission filter flush and new fluids. Rotor vary from 40 to 100 bucks each , pads about 50 bucks a set same as the drums and shoes,transmission filter any where from 20 to 60 bucks could be more.Oil change is about 25 bucks, don't forget to rotate your tires while your at it.highly recommend the brakes are done properly surfacing rotors and drums are possible but most shops will suggest replacing them to avoid warping and other possible problems that can ac-cure and will save you money in the long run.
