I have a 2008 G37S - what is recommended for my 60k service? It seems like there are so many options at the dealer I'm having a hard time trying to decipher what is necessary and what is an up-sale. Right now they are telling me that oil change and filter (duh), tire rotation, engine and in-cabin air filters (duh), replace coolant, replace differential, and replace transmission fluid is the minimum to the tune of about $700.

 

Most of what you listed can be a simple DIY with less than $200

 

You have staggered tires/wheels, no rotation necessary. As emillion says, simple tasks. Just check out the DIY's. You don't even have to raise the car to do the diff.

 

Look for alternatives, such as buying fluids and going to an independent shop. Oil change, engine and cabin filters are really easy.

 

There's a bunch of DYI's on here for most of that stuff. If it's a AT, have the dealer do it. There are special tools and procedures required. The rear end is very easy. You'll need some way of pumping new fluid in. At 60K I'd also be changing out the belt.

 

All those were recommended for my 30k service. I had them only do the coolant, rear diff and transmission. Everything else I did myself. I only paid close to $300 for the 3 I mentioned instead of close to $700 for everything you listed.
