Default Non-Z related question..

I have a Z... but recently bought a 2010 RDX so i can add more mod on the Z!

Just wondering if anyone has reco on where to go to for regular scheduled maintenance on the RDX? the dealer tried to sell me some maintenance service package, basically, $100 for a oil change, that i declined.. still need to look for a place to service the RDX

thanks!

btw, the turbo on the RDX is hella fun.. maybe i should get the twin turbo for the z...hahahah

Unless they flush your brake fluid, power steering fluid, coolant, and oil every time you take it in... $100 is scam pricing.

brake inspection - take your wheels off and check pads
tire tread depth - measure tread depth
Lube all door hinges
check fluids low or dirty time to change
check cv boots for leaking or tears
rotate tires check tire psi

i used to work at toyota thats all you do on a such a thing called "$100 service" which is like 50 - 75 bucks at toyota, they just want ur money from up selling sh*t
