Does this sound right? Thats how much they charged me to change my oil and what ever else they do at that time, but the total amount in parts was $58. LOL. Is it worth it going to the dealer at every service? They also balaced out my wheels.

 

ummmm...isnt it suppose to be free for first 2 years? it is for me at least

 

Exactly what did they charge you $210 for? Oil and
filter......balanced tires.....lets see $50 for the balance
and maybe $45 for the oil change....$115 balance.
Lets see rotate tires, service antenna and maybe a
filter change or two. What does the receipt say they
did? This is why everyone needs to go over the
work order with the service writer.....don't pay for
some B/S you don't need.........Stealerships, gotta
love em!!

 

Look in your manual and check the maintenance schedule as to what is to be done. I just had mine done at 7700 and all they did was an oil change + alignment, but I asked for the alignment.

Since when do our tires need rebalancing at 7500 miles.

Sorry to say, but you got highjacked by your STEALER.

 

It says that parts total came out to about $58, and $138 was for labor. Can this be right? Does anyone know if its supposed to be free on a lease? I dont think the oil chage is but what about the labor. The put wights on my wheels or so they say they did and changed my windshield wipers. They also fixed my rear axle clicking sound. In total they had the car for about 2 to 3 hours. Any suggestions? Should I go back or call and ask why its that much. I dont mind dishing out money on my car at all, but if they are just stealing it than its a different story. Thank you guys.

 

yeah my 7500 mile service was $105. They did a lot of random pointless things. the reason i paid was cause i needed to have my non-oem wheels balanced and it cost $100 dollars to get 20" balanced and aligned.

I think that on a lease just the oil changes are free.

any of the "dealer services" are rip offs IMO. the service manual outlines what is needed at each interval and all of it can be done DIY or by any reputable mechanic.

 

i wouldn't blame on the dealerships too much, their employees get $50/hour, what about their rent? and everything else? don't compare their price with Do it yourself...

 

Can't answer you q's on leases with Infiniti., but years ago with a diff maker, with my lease, I had to pay for all maintenace on the vehicle.

A good dealer service dept will always go over with you the things they're going to do before they give you that paper with the estimate costs, which also shows what you have approved them to do...nothing more, nothing less.
And if there needs to be more after the fact, they are supposed to call you about that additional work needed and get your approval.
Did they ask if you wanted your wheels balanced or wipers changed while the service order was being witten up?

The rear axle clicking sound should be a N/C warranty fix. There's a TSB on that. Infiniti knows it a problem and should fix that for free.
