I, personally, would go to the dealer. The service should run you around $120.

You sure about that? The 60k mile service is around $400. The way I'm reading his post I'm assuming that he never had that one done yet, and that's a major one. If you go in for the 75k and haven't had the 60k done yet, they will do both which would probably run around $500. If you haven't had the 60k done, I would do it b/c the 30k and the 60k are your major ones......

I really want to know what kind job will be performed. If it's just fluid level check-up and something like that, it's not really worth it. They charging us hundreds of $$ doing what??

My apologies, I read the mileage wrong. I thought it was the 7500 check up.

I just had the 30,000 mile service done and it cost me $465.

Power flush engine coolant, flush radiator, replace coolant.
Flush engine oil, replace oil and filter.
Flush brake lines, replace brake fluid.
Change transmission fluid.
Balance and rotate wheels.
Flush intake system, clean injectors.
Carbon flush.
Fixed squeaking sunroof (warranty).

Expensive, but I've never had any problems with the car.
