Default Re: How much did your 30K maintenance cost?

The 30K checkup is a rip off. They wanted $350 for it.

The two main items (other than oil) that they provide is cabin and air filters). I asked about how much these items were, alone: $50 for an air filter/install, $105 for cabin filter/install. The air filter costs under $10, the cabin filters cost under $25. They said the rest was labor. Geesh.

I had already changed my air filter. In less than 5 minutes.
I had already changed my cabin filter. In less than 5 mintes.

I just had the oil changed, and from that point on, will not step into the dealer's facility for maintenance again.

I have a MT, so I don't have to worry about that fluid change.
