I do all my own work, but nothing in that list looks excessive except the $119 for the oil change. Seems like a lot of money just for labor (the oil and filter are listed as separate expenses). Draining the old oil (or drawing it out the dipstick tube) does not take all that long, nor does changing the filter or adding fresh oil. I can draw the oil out of the 7.4 liter engine my boat in about 5 minutes if the oil is warm, and I have a manual pump. A shop would likely have a better system than I have. The filter spins off and on in mere seconds and is very easy to get to. Adding fresh oil is a matter of pouring it into a funnel; maybe 5 minutes tops. That said, the $0 charges for other items might be absorbed into the "oil change" charge.
