Default Sm Lexus wants to charge me $46 to turn off my drls
Well my car is in for rattles and the aux in tsib, and the service rep told me that I'd have to pay $46 to get my drls turned off. Is this what people pay? Does anyone know somewhere in socal I can get them turned off for less or for free?? Thanks!

Andrew

not looking for your opinion on whether or not a simple setting is worth paying 46 dollars for. Just want to know where people in socal got theirs turned off for free or less

Try a different dealership. Not SMH Lexus lol

edit - your car is probably passed 1k miles being a 08. I could see why they'd charge now. at your 1k it's free.
