A Midas oil change costs about $30 to $100 in 2026

Why Midas prices change so much by city
Car Tips Daily compared Midas stores across the country. In Houston and San Antonio, full synthetic started around $79.99, and blends often dropped under $40 with a coupon. Omaha stores advertised synthetic blend for as low as $29.99. In the Northeast and on the coasts, prices jump. One Bronx store charged $84.99 to start for conventional oil, Miami charged $89.00 for full synthetic, and Walnut Creek, California charged $99.99.
It also warns that almost every Midas price covers up to 5 quarts. Many trucks and SUVs take more, so the real price is higher. Car Service Land says a car that takes 6, 7 or 8 quarts should expect about $5 to $15 on top of the base price.
The San Diego Convoy Street Midas lists $29.99 synthetic blend or $59.99 full synthetic, plus a disposal fee, and a $70 full synthetic with a free tire rotation and digital inspection. Its fine print says taxes, disposal and shop fees are extra, and that a tire pressure sensor reset is not included.

How to judge the price you are quoted
- Ask how many quarts the price covers and what extra quarts cost.
- Ask what fees will be added to the total.
- Ask if there is a coupon at your store today.
- Compare with $59.99 to $99.99 for full synthetic, depending on your city.
Ways to pay less
- Check your local Midas store page for coupons before you go.
- Ask about teacher, nurse, first responder or military discounts.
- Compare two Midas stores near you. Prices can differ.
- Use the oil your owner manual calls for, not an upgrade you do not need.
