45K Service costing $299
My car is in service in other problems, i have 48000miles on the clock, service guy tells me i'm due a 45K inspection. I told him ok but i feel $299 is a bit much.
What to you guys think...
I got a TL loaner for the week, nearly got a 05 RL loaner ... missed out by 5mins lol

But I never paid $299 for anything on my CLS, except for aftermarket parts 
Look in your manual and tell me what all is recommended.

how handsome I am
i know for a FACT that all that stuff didnt cost me $299 (i have a 97 CL 2.2 but that shouldnt matter.)
Go and bother them about it saying its way too much and that you'll just hit up another mechanic (if you live in the Doral/Miami Springs/South Miami area, I can refer you to mine.)

Yea, when I bring mine in, me and the guy go over everything that Im gonna do myself and it ends up being only a couple of things they do. They only have a couple of TSX loaners and a butload of RSX's. If you're not there early you dont get any of them. I remember one time they gave me a minivan. That was painful. Probably a good thing they dont give out TL's cause I would end up trading my car in after driving that one for a week.
Do you belong to any of these aviation forums?

Manual states that at 45K you should change coolant and brake fluid. That should cost approximately 100.00 together. I did those and oil and filter and asked for a general inspection they usually recommend at 15,000 miles and got out for about $200.00.
