Has anyone completed the 30k service?
Was quoted 1k for this and wasn't sure it was worthy or not.

 

NONE of the 'xxK' services are worth it imo. Just free money for Toyota!

 

so do you just avoid scheduled maintenance, get it done somewhere else, or DIY?

 

Yes you can do it yourself or do it elsewhere, but for resale it's nice to show the Carfax showing all of the dealer services. Not sure if that adds value but it should. Probably doesn't matter if you trade it in vs sell it yourself though.

 

Bit--- Never said that I don’t do scheduled services, Just never felt that the prices quoted were justified.

 

I had mine done at 26k miles and it was free( car is certified) except for 2 run flats. The tires cost close to $1400 dollars with an alignment.

 

What all is included? The cost doesn't sound too bad for a $100k+ car, to be honest. I think it's worth it for peace of mind.

 

Mine consisted of oil change ,brake flush and fluid change, cabin and engine filter.

 

Ah in that case $1,000 is pretty steep. Maybe try shopping around?

 

Here in the SF bay area, the price are as follow on 30/60Ku service. Dealers here thinks we grow money on trees.
Personally I would just let them do the oil change and brake fluid flush, maybe cheaper by piece meal. The other items are check this check that.

There is always some room for negotiation in their quoted price, So I am never reluctant to ask for it.

 

And you know they'll find something during these inspections.

 

"something"

 

The service advisor suggested Rust Proof coating and I am in the bay area. Should I get it done?

 

no... waste of money unless your car is routinely sprayed by salt water.
