woo woo woo hold on a minute. you got ripped off for the 30k service (although it is going rate) they charged you alot to look at this and look at that, then did a few fluid changes.
NOW from your "member since"date and mileage I'm guessin your build date is early 2002. which should mean thoughs brakes and rotor resurfacing is covered under a T.S.B.
What they do is replace the pads with softer ones that aren't as hard on the rotors and resurface the rotors(although some members have talked there way into NEW rotors for free it's uncommon) all for free.
the fact that you're dealer didnt offer this info to you pisses me off, but it all comes down to the allmighty $ and bottomline they get more of it to do it as non TSB.
LOOKS LIKE I'M A MINUTE TOO LATE, OH WELL.

Dude! the rotors should be covered under the warranty.... besides who the hell charges 800 for brake pads???? Are they made of titanium? Your getting Screwed!
30K maitenance also shouldn't cost that much.... i just got mine done through the dealer for $265. They are ripping you off! not to mention screwing you out of a ligitimite warranty repair.

Yes that price is kinda steep mine did not cost that much & I had them do a 4wheel alignment at time at an extra cost to me. You should have paid around the $300 mark. This could be in the range of $280 to $320 depending on the dealer. They way I look at the cost it should be $150 Labor & $150 Parts.
