Ha "regular" means whatever the dealer wants to charge you.

Thats ridiculous... Look, I don't want to do my own service as much as the next guy - I actually choose to go to the Dealership Service Center because there are some garuntees we get by using them - So I'm not going to say you did wrong, but you sure as hell didnt play it smart. My 30k Maintenance was probably around $160 after everything... and thats at the dealership! Granted, cabin filter / air filter cleaning (F-Sport) I do myself, but that engine business I leave to someone else. I got -ish to do.
It is probably best that you look at your service manual and ask for the services NEEDED specifically. I purchase parts online, show up and tell them what I need done. Simple. Now thats because I know if some of those inspection items are going bad - but in no way am I mechanically inclined. I hope your next service goes better jgr7.
a win is a win I guess.

Whatever helps you sleep at night boss. ![Stick Out Tongue](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
If you are going to do the service at least make the most of it. They can pick up your car and drop off a loaner at your front door. Nice feature to have with a new/CPO vehicle.

They tried to tell me that I needed plugs on my last visit. They quoted $275!!! How can you guys justify paying that kind of markup. The plugs are $10ea worst case. I just couldnt bring myself to drop that kind of money for spark plugs.
