Default Re: 20k or 30k mile checkup

I am taking my car in this afternoon for a B 123 maintenance minder service. B= oil and filter change and a bunch of inspects & Checks. 1= a tire rotation. 2=air filter(did that on my own). And 3=transmission fluid drain and fill. The service person asked me how many miles I had on the car and I told him approx 32-33k miles. Then he says well you should do your 30k mile maintenance and I asked how much it was. Over $350!! I said no thanks, I will just do what the maintenance minder wants me to do and I will do all the checks and inspects myself. The only real difference in what the 30k service and the services I am getting done today are the inspections of the hoses,belts,brakes,etc. I can do that myself thankyou very much!! The services I am getting done today at the dealer will be around $150 total.
