$430 30k service???

I just bought a m35 sport with 27k. I called the dealership to ask about a routine service and they quoted me $430!!! Is there anyway to get a routine maintenance for less?

Go to Jiffy Lube. However, if they mess up....

And of course, they'll try to upsell you everything and you'll probably end up spending more.

Thanks!

Funny! I live in Riverside. I'll call the EZ lube I used to take my I35 to, maybe they can do everything the dealership can do but for less i.e. cabin filter, etc...

Keep in mind everything they use is aftermarket parts, not genuine OE parts.

30k.. isn't that just oil change, cabin filter, rotate tires... and inspections? and then the 40k is the ATF, diff, etc... ?

$430 isn't that high of a price if its ATF and etc.

DIY on just parts alone are about $150ish

Our 30k service includes:

Oil change
Oil filter
Tire rotation
Tire balancing
replace air filter(s)
replace in-cabin microfilter
Transmission fluid exchange

Oh, and we litterally check out the entire car for anything else that may need to be done.

All parts and fluids are OE unless otherwise specified/requested by the customer.

You WILL get a loaner G35, as this service is rather time consuming.
