Just curious

How much your dealer/service is asking for one year service ?

i just paid for the service ( oil service and filters ) 630$ without buying the oil from the service ! if i bought the oil from the dealer the total cost would be 900$ is this crazy or what ?!?!

I have my last two yearly services done by an Indy (only does Porsches); he provides everything including cabin filter, oil... It costs less than $250.

Yes, I would say your cost is crazyly high, assuming your $ is in U.S. $.

My indy charges me $54 and I bring the oil. The rest of the service is basically checking over the car.

I am so sorry for the your loss! Which is quite a lot!

Akram at Motorwerks charges $140 for an oil change AND he test drives the car BEFORE he works on it, AND inspects it to make sure he knows what's going on with your car before he touches it!

You should definitely find a good local guy!

Dealerships ARE evil!
