I paid over $500 for a 15,000 mile service last year. Today, when I called to make an appointment for 30,000 mile oil change, I was told my ES350 needs another sevice which costs $700. I was very upset. My question is if I only do oil change, will that affect my warranty?
This is the list of service for $700. Are there all necessary, and have to be done by a Lexus Dealer?
• Change engine oil
• Replace wiper inserts
• Install 44k fuel additive
• Install motor oil additive
• Replace AC filter
• Replace engine air filter
• Replace brake fluid
• Rotate and balance tires
• Adjust fluid levels
• Measure F&R brake rotor and pad thickness
• Reset service reminder
• Inspect the following:
• Ball joints and dust covers
• Brake pads and rotors
• Drive shaft boots
• Nuts and bolts on chassis and body
• Steering linkages
• Brake lines and hoses
• Differential oil (Front on AWD also)
• Exhaust pipes and mountings
• Rack and pinion assembly
• Transmission fluid
• Road test
Not a car person myself, I need some help in deciding what to do.
