would you say it was dumb of me to get the 30k service done when i only had about 10,600ish miles? it had been 2 years and the manual says 30k or 24 months so i said what the hell and had it done....

 

C'mon it will be fun in having to do a little DIY?!!..its very therapeutic!. .

 

Thanks to this thread i amost paid $400+ for the 30k maintence, ill just take it to a local trusted shop and have my fluids changed.

 

+2 , my 06 has 16,500 miles.

 

^ +1 nice... my 06 has 35k miles... im jealous.

 

do the service yourself, save money, gain knowledge.

 

I read the words "random" or "randomness" in these threads a lot, so here we go: I've known car owners---especially females---who hardly ever take their rides for periodic maintenance, and their cars turn out to be of above-average reliability. On the other hand, I've known guys who practically live inside the engine bay of their car and/or under it, and their vehicles are lemmons...Bottomline: It's a game of "lotto" of sorts, vehicle-wise. Do give your car "normal" maintenance---whatever that means!
