I think this so funny, I walked in to drop off my car for last free service, and they wanted $450 for 15K service lol

I was like not!

Just thought I share, don't get taken by your dealer!

 

Ha! I never take mine to the dealer only if it's a free service issue. I lease so oil changes a tire rotation (twice) at JIFFY LUBE (19.99) and turn it back in before 30K....PLEASE!

 

Jiffy Lube makes me want to punch babies. I'd rather have one-armed monkeys working on my car than those jokers.

 

What he said ....

 

All the 15K service is is a glorified oil change, tire rotation, engine air filters and the cabin filter.
I do my own service. My car is driven mostly on the highway, so it has a lot less hours on the engine then a car that is driven mostly in city traffic.
Because of that my engine air filters still look like new, when I hold a light behind and look through them. So there was no need to change them.
I also factored in the short operating time I put on my vehicle to attain 15K miles, so I don't intend on changing the cabin filter until 25K.
I have a tire thread depth gauge and my tires are wearing evenly, so I didn't bother rotating them at the 15k time.

 

WOW, that made me literally LOL.

 

I did 15k myself, but had them do the 30k.

 

What dealer in MD was this??

 

for the 15k don't they retorque certain things? like engine mounts, suspension...stuff like that? i was under the impression that was what they do and it's not just oil, filters, crap.

 

I'm slightly confused about your thread title. Did your experience at the dealership make you sleepy, or just a lot of employees there yawning?

 

yeah bad spelling.. I meant Tried not Tired
