Just dropped $930 at my 60000 mile service. Needed new brakes, 4 new Pirelli P6's, plus all the regular maintenance. My oil came out in clumps . Prolly shoulda had that changed at some point. The regular maintenance alone was $260. Guess it just depends on what you have done.

I agree! oil changes and warranty work is all the dealer gets anymore...find yourself a trusty mechanic that knows our car and you'll easily pay a third of the cost.

HAHA I am with him... At 30k on my 04 they wanted 250 to "clean the heads"... I think all they are going to do is add some gas treatment and drive it around.
