My gs is in the possesion of my mother while im gone on deployment. She took to a mechanic yesterday to get a quote, the damn mechanic said it would cost $600 for a tune-up. I wanted to hit you guys up to find out an approx price so i'm not getting ripped off.

depends what it is bro, if its just a simple spark plug change and oil. its not worth it. list the things that he said he would do during this tune up then we will know.

It's all a matter of whats included. How many miles? Im guessing its a MAJOR tuneup?

Jiggaman54

All he said was spark plugs, a/c check, and fluid changes.

Definitly not worth it. But then again maybe thats because my mechanic hooks me up.

i found this web page which details all the maintenance by model/ year/ mileage and has prices... i am sure this is somewhat common knowledge but during my last 90k this list saved me about 500$ by getting the same things checked and serviced at a normal shop over having a lexus mechanic do it.

Thanks sojah, that link is very useful! Now I can do the easier stuff on my own for the 90k maintenance and bring it to my local mechanic for the rest - plus my brother-in-law's brother works for STS. Maybe he can hook it up for me!!
