brought my baby in for 15K scheduled service...
Dropped my G off this morning for 15K service. Looking at the work order, it doesn't look like they actually do that much. A lot of inspecting but not much else. They also said if I wanted to change the air filters it would be $70 for parts/labor! That sounded ridiculous to me so I passed on it. Total cost for the 15K service is $223.49 and here's what was on the work order:
Ins/cruise ctl vac/hoses
Replace filt/drain washer
Ins. ft.susp.ball joints
Ins/diffe/oil except I35
Replace Incab Microfilter
Ins. transfer case oil
Ins. prop/shaft 4wd Awd
Ins. axle & susp/parts
Lubricate propelar shaft
Rotate Tires
Replace Engine Oil
Replace Engine Oil Filter
Ins. Exhaust System
Ins. Steer Gear & linkage
Ins. Brake Lines & Cables
Ins. Bk Pads, rtrs, calipers
Ins. Transmission fluid
Ins. Drive Shaft Boots
Ins/adj Tire pressure
Ins.strg.link ball joints
I also asked them to fix my seat warmers, moon-roof trim, voicetags constantly getting deleted, and ICC surging - all under TSB's
Anyone else get different service for different cost for the 15k scheduled maintenance?

Check out the service manual for the differences between premium service, and schedule 1 and 2. There was a thread about this, but I can't find it now. I believe people were opting for schedule 1 or 2, but the dealer is obviously going to sell you the premium service (which is expensive for a whole lot of just looking).
Also, check out this thread about using Nissan for service.

I don't even take my cars into dealers for "servicing" until well past 60k miles. It's ridiculous, all of these new cars today are built to basically go 100k miles without doing anything except replacing tires, brakes, fluids, etc. To keep the revenue streams to dealers, they "recommend" a bunch of inspections. I often wonder if they even inspect anything outside of the obvious. I know when I need to replace my tires and brakes and can tell when fluids look bad. This is my second lease and I've never had any problems turning cars in or anything. Short of warranty work, my car never sees the dealer. It's highway robbery. Plus, my few experiences at dealers have been bad (granted, not Infiniti), but not putting oil filters on right, leaving the oil cap OFF, and staining a wheel with brake fluid.

Yeah, that's a rip off. I got the oil, filter, in cabin filter for what, 50 bucks? Changed all that myself. I have a JWT so just cleaned that bad boy out and I took it to Nissan who did all the inspections free! Wipers were another 20 bucks (Valeos from tirerack) and tire rotation was 20 bucks.

The only thing I want to change really, is the tranny fluid, the differential oil, engine oil and what not. I'm not sure why the engine drive belt has to be changed now but if they do, cool.
