where should i take my car for service in Nova area?

im getting ready to take my G to service, where should i take her to? i live in sterling, so i thought either Chantilly or Tysons.
does anyone know where i can get the best price and best service?

also, if you know someone reliable and easy to deal with in one of the infiniti dealerships, please let me know... a name woudl be great too and which dealership.

im getting close to my 7500 mile service. any recommendation on what i should do? just normal oil/filter change? or should i go for the "always expensive" dealership "service"??

and one last question, how much are you guys paying for the oil change/filter; and also services? i heard that some people take their car to Nissan for service since they do exactly the same thing as infiniti yet they are cheaper! any suggestion is appreciated, thanks!

Just get the Oil Change....that's all you really need for 7500 miles. We used to have a hook up at Chantilly, but we had a falling out of sorts. Some use Annapolis, but I don't remember which dealership in VA w use....someone will post.

That's a big WTF-over? If we have a discount there then they owe me money. Did Ryan work something out?

I just made an appoitment with Passport this morning for an oil change/fluid check, and some issues concerning my brakes and two annoying rattles (major rearview rattle (not tsb related) and one from my passenger rear window (tsb related)).

Only have had the car for a week (used 04), but I figure I might as well get this stuff done and over with... I am suppose to speak to a guy named Jeff... here is hoping,

They did mention a loaner... I am curious to know what they will be handing over to me to drive...

I am debating though wheather to bring in my own oil or just use the coupon for the 40 dollar syn/blend oil that they use... suggestions?

^$39 for their synthetic blend and add another $40 for full synthetic. Just buy the oil/filter from autozone, advance and have then install it. To do that you are just paying for labor which is 19.99 and that is for either regular or synthetic.

Jeff is the best! He'll definitely take care of you. He'll be busy as **** though so don't take it to personally if he can't get too friendly with you

Most of the time you just get an 05 or 06 G35 Sedan but every once in a while (my last two times) I got a G35X...man that was fun to drive!!!

When you go by there, tell him Stanton says hi!

If your in the NOVA area I can do the service for you at my dealer, Browns Fairfax Nissan. We can service Infinitis, just can't do warranty work.
Although right now we are renovating the whole dealer, so some things may not be possible, but once we are done renovating we should have all new equipment and ready to go.

i got a warranty work stuff that need to be checked-out (tire presure light is on..:/
so i thought, since i'll be at the dealership (whichever one it is), might as well do my 7500 there as well.
im thinking maybe Chantilly since its closer to me. anyone know any good service rep at chantilly?

Destro, thanks for the offer. i live very close to your dealership.. i may take my baby in for service in the near future; however, nissan doesnt do infiniti warranty work, so i have to take it to an infiniti dealership for it. thanks again tho.
btw, can you pm me your name and # so i can get in contact with you if i need services down the road? thanks.
