USA 10K miles, needs full service?

Hey guys,
I had the 5k service which was free from my dealer as the first service, tire rotation, oil change and 27 point check. And he also installed some replaceable element which I have no idea what that is, 04152-YZZA6.
The oil he used was XO 5W20 5QSP accodring to the invoice.

Now I'm over 10k should I take the car back to them, I called them up and they charge around 60-70 bux for it. Or should I not and do it myself? I've seen several signs at different places saying Oil Change for 20 bux.
If I should do it myself what Oil is the best for my engine?

Thanks!!!!!!!!

The part is the oil filter, the oil is synthetic 5W20.

The dealer would change the oil and filter plus rotate tires.

For longer life continue to use synthetic oil of the same weight. Doubt you will get this for $20 as this oil costs more.

If you want to save a few dollars find an oil change outlet that offers name brand synthetic oil of the correct weight and decent oil filters. A TN search will turn up recommendations on both.

Make sure you keep the receipts for service in case of engine warranty claims.
