I believe I spent around $300 for my $30K premium service, including transmission service (but not flush), but no oil change since I had done that a 1000 miles earlier.

 

$600.00 sounds right, but $750.00 is a little too expensive.

 

Eh, i have my buddy at my old shop do the work. All i have to do is buy him beers...I get the parts and stuff and documents the items bought and needed for the service.

 

Got a quote from the local dealership, and they charge more than that: $850 + tax, to be exact.
