60k Service?

Anyone have any recommendations as to where I should get my 60k service done? Any particular dealerships, mechanics, etc? Also, what kind of price should I be looking at for this? Please post up any advice or preferred places. Btw, have an 04 coupe 6mt.

I heard Zcar garage is crowded and doesn't let you watch what they're doing.. what if they forget to put your dipstick back in like a jiffylube did to another forum member I would say take it to Eugene because you can watch what he's doing, he'll let you know what he's doing and you might even have enough confidence to do it yourself next time! End up saving money

60k service can mean a lot of things. There are different options for oils/filters/parts. There are also optional services like brake flush, power steering flush, etc. Depending on what you want done, it can vary. Here is an ad from Frontier Infiniti - you can see how much they charge for the 60k service.

While Infiniti posts a long list of items, only very few things are actually changed. Most of them are inspection items that will incur a charge if any work needs to be performed.

And to make matters worse, their service doesn't include important items like brake flush or power steering flush.

Uh...nope. Our experience with Z-Car was fantastic. We brought our G in for an oil change. The shop has a lot going on, but we made and appointment and got right in.
They knocked out the oil change in about 20 minutes and pointed out a few items that would need attention soon that we'll take care of along with the 60k.

Rob was quick to take us on a shop tour. Let us go wherever we wanted. All the guys there were super friendly and made us feel welcome.

Its obvious you guys are Eugene/Infinicare fans, but no need to bash the Z-Car guys.

Some go where they get the best price and service... some are just loyal to one place and dont care about prices.
