I shall ask my question here instead of starting a new one. I am up for my 30K service and called up Richmond Lexus to make an appointment, and they say this "major" service will cost me $530(somewhere like that) and they will need the car of the whole day.
my question...is this "major" service needed or can I just do an Oil and Filter change at lets say Canadian Tires / some where else for cheap..Or Do i needed to/ recommended to do this "major service" :S
It will keep increasing...Lexus "recommends" their every-other-Service and every-other-Maintenance...will end up charging you like $400-500 for every "Maintenance"
everything is bull****
I get my service done at a local mechanic, I buy my own oil (Motul 5w30 Synthetic) and oem filter from Lexus, and just pay the labour for oil and to get things checked up..total comes to about $100 with GOOD OIL
Once a year I change a new cabin air filter, and clean out my intake filter
Wipers, Tires, Brakepads and Rotors are changed according to wear
Other than that, it is just oil change every 8,000KM...........brake fluid flush every 48,000KM...........and spark plug change every 96,000KM.......NOTHING ELSE
don't fall for that dealership crap, this is where they make the most money off of you

Any input would be greatly appreciated!
thanks!
In this case I'd rather be overcharged at a Lexus dealer than give my car to crappy tire *******s
