Just got my car from 45K service

Gave it to them Monday night. Service guy calls me on Tuesday afternoon to tell me it is going to cost 400 some dollars. I nearly shit in my pants. I asked him for what. He went down the list and i eliminated half of it. Told him that I want an oil change, the coolant service (first time), filters, the tranny recall stuff(jet kit) and to find this noise from my front suspension. He was like "Cool, no problem". This is the first time I haven't done everything they told me to, so I was a little nervous. I know there is no reason to but, I was. Well, they wound up doing everything by accident. So he calls me today and says my car is ready and they did everything BUT, they will not charge because the tech did it all by accident. 100 bucks.
The guy I was talking to on the phone is not the usual guy. When I went in my regular guy (Chris) was there. He thought it was great and was laughing. He kept congratulating me on getting the free stuff.

Did you get a tranny fluid and brake fluid change for the $100.00? Did they find anything wrong with all the "inspections?"

The car runs a lot smoother, after each service actually. It is weird. And yes, the tranny fluid etc. was flushed changed. :thumbsuP
