B2 Service at Rallye Acura: $595?!?!
#41
I would shit my pants if someone told me they were going to charge me $600 for an oil and cabin filter change. I refuse to change my own oil on my vehicles after a bad accident I had resulting from an overtightened drain pan bolt, so I'm not above paying someone else to do it... but $600, fuck!

I go to Expressway, they use Valvoline Synthetic, its good oil. I see them putting it in, I know exactly what they're doing, they have a window to watch. They charge $70.00 for synthetic, which is half the price of what the dealer charges in CT. They also refill wiper fluid and top off coolant as well.
Tire rotations are free for me since I purchased my tires from Town Fair Tire, they charge $10.00 normally.
As for the Cabin filter, I haven't changed mine and I have 41,500miles or so, the only problem you'll get is a musty smell when you turn on the A/C, but it goes away after 15seconds.
The Engine air filter I change myself it's very easy, it takes me 30seconds to do it.

Cabin Filter change, Oil, Tires Rotated, Re-torque suspension (even though I"m on Teins?), brake fluid replacement, and some other BS... is this worth it? I'm just wondering if the OP was also at the 30k mark.
I was charged $130 at the dealer for a brake fluid flush (I serviced it at 40K mi.). What year is your TL you don't really need to get it done unless your car is an 04 or 05, if its and 06 or 07 I would wait a bit longer.

Best one is the ATP HA5 from www.rockauto.com. It's impregnated with charcoal for odor reduction.
