MY '07 warranty expires in 10 days.

Think I want to buy extended warranty - does this mean I need to have dealer do the work?

NO

1. Oil pan and gasket due to impact and rust corrosion $599.95
Rust should be covered under warranty. longer then power train.
Is it leaking?

2. Passenger wiper blade, driver's side wiper rubber insert, engine and cabin air filters $299.95

DON'T DO IT> very simple DYI at home buy parts online.
these are very simple to replace, you don't even need a screwdriver.
All parts and instructions can be searched for on here.


3. Fuel system service $189.95
They don't do much for this price. If it said a full Throttle body cleaning then maybe I would consider. You can drop in the fuel additive they sell at Toyota Parts at your next fill up for an extra $15


4. Throttle body service $89.95
This is a must, when you get this cleaned it totally wakes up any car you will see a short duration of better fuel economy and more power, until it gets dirty again. need to be done probably between 36K and 60K depending on how often you change your AIR filter and your driving conditions.


5. Oil and filter change $49.95
