LL-04 oils in the USA are pretty scarce but LL-01 oils run between $6.50 - $8.00 per quart (basically the same as a liter). LL-04 oil will probably be the same. Pretty much all name brand oils labelled as "synthetic" are at the same price point, regardless if they are group 3 or 4. There are ALWAYS oil sales/rebates though, so you can easily get LL-01 for the $4 - $6 range per quart. Quality non-synthetics are about $4/quart - sales at $2 - $3 per quart.

Mann/Mahle/Hengst filters are usually in the $5 - $10 range (before shipping, if not free) depending on the application.
