Hi,
Just wondering how much a garage should roughly be charging me to change the oil in Mazda 3 1.6 Diesel?
Any advice appreciated
Thanks

Not enough to make it worth posting on a forum about it :-)

My local garage won't usually do oil changes as they are so busy, so if you asked them they'd quote a ridiculous amount to put you off. I'd recommend buying your own and then finding a local tyre/service place that will do it for a cheap labour only rate. I use a local tyre/exhaust/brake place to change fluids on my Jeep. They recently did the engine oil, both diffs, auto box and transfer case for £25 (fluids supplied by me).
Thanks for your help.
