Good, cause they will charge you more than you would pay to get it from somewhere like halfrauds

Ideally on a Corsa you should change the oil once a year or 12k miles maybe - check the levels regularly though!!

thats what i do, well oil is free! and a filter is about £2 and takes 5mins!

if you take to vauxhall it will be 0.4hrs to change the oil and filter (o.2 set up time)

so at £65 labour, 0.4 = £26+vat to change the oil plus filter, (you surplying the oil + filter)

you could always save yourself the money and do it all yourself. it's a nice easy job on the corsa 'cus of the engines are quite small and easily acessable.
