Some cars have filters that are impossible to get at, others are very easy. The dealer charges the same price, maybe more if it takes extra oil, but the labor is the same. If your dealer has a problem with the brace, you need to find a different dealer.

Avi, the only problem you may have is if the dealer doesn't move the Xbrace out of the way when changing oil and it drips all over it. MESSY!! Other than that it should not be a problem.
