Default What is actually needed on a 30K service?

I was looking at the manual and noticed that there is a premium maintenance and schedule 1 and 2 maintenance for 30,000 mile service. I was wondering what is actually needed and should be done for this mileage? There are 3 different price range, starting from $199, $299, & $399 at the Nissan dealers. I have a 2005 350ZR, touring, manual. I have driven it for about 41 months so far.

Based on experience, is a premium maintenance needed at 30,000 miles? Is that even necessary or are dealers trying to make more $$. Which maintenance should I opt for? Thanks.

Differential, and Transmission Fluid change is what I did, along with my filter change. My belts looked perfectly normal so I just left that alone.

Decide which schedule suits you best. Stick with that schedule:

a. Harsh conditions such as Arizona summers or North Dakota winters. Frequent short trips. These conditions require more frequent routine maintenance.

Do not throw money away on the “more is better” philosophy.
