15k service - did it make a difference

Called the dealer today to get ready for the 15k service. Oil change, tire rotation and balance, long checklist of stuff = $155. Oil change and tire rotation usually costs me $60-$70. Is the long checklist really worth the extra $85? Could you tell any difference in your car, was it more like new again?

I asked them about it and they said no, that's in the 30k service. With all the potential troubles, should I pony up the bucks to flush the tranny? I am getting occasional "tranny confusion" at very low speeds.

30K to change tranny fluid sounds fine.
