What do you need done? I've had pretty good luck at Renton Toyota and Greg's Japanese auto in Tukwila.

I just need to do regular every 5k maintenance on the car. I know that the 15k, 25k, etc. aren't really needed, but might as well do it to keep a record and warranty.

I would just go to a Toyota dealership for that stuff if you want records to keep for future sale. Compare dealership prices in the area, as they seem to vary.

Thanks I'll call the dealership for prices. Are Gregs's shops good for doing these service as well?

I've been using Greg's Japanese Auto for my 5000 mile interval oil changes for the last couple of years. No problems with them so far.

Greg's is fine for oil and filter (including air filters) changes since thats what the maintenance intervals call for. If you are particular to what type of fluids they use, which may not be Toyota branded then the dealership is your only option. I suppose you can always request Toyota parts, but at that point, you may be close to dealership prices anyways. Good luck and keep us updated on what you decide.
