what i need to do at 30k

i have no clue how i did this already in less than two years on account of i have never even left my state and i mainly drive to school and work, but i just hit 30k miles and my check engine light just came on. has anyone else hit this mark yet? i checked at the dealer and they told me it'd b over 600 bucks, which sounds like bs to me. i have access to a full mechanic garage and would prefer to just spend the next 1-3 days doing what can be done myself and then taking it somewhere else if there's anything i need to have done by someone else. tnx

Check engine light has squat to do with your mileage. Check to make sure your gas cap is tight. If it is, then take it to the dealership and have them pull which code it's showing.

$600 for full 30K service isn't a bad price. The Service and Maintenance guide has what you neeed to check/inspect/replace if you want to DIY. It'll make you feel more connected with your car.

Just got my 30K done last week. They did everything on the list. Said, had I not had the Elite Maint program it would of cost around a grand. This was at Lokey in Clearwater. Damn lot of money. Only had the car 13 months and already got 30K on it . Love to drive it, I guess
