Anyone know what the usual cost of a 45 k service is?

I'll let you know within the coming month when Brumos does my 45,000 mile inspection.

A 45K maintenance is an oil change and a new Pollen filter. In addition, every 2 years, the brake fluid should be flushed.

Fluids and filters are worth about $90. It takes about an hour to do. It is not worth more than $200 with labor.

That's really it? Mine's at 44xxx now so I was about to have it in for a checkup and fluids anyway. Good to know this isn't as big as the 30/60k

My dealer did the 45k with a brake flush...total was $850, which I think is the going rate. It's not a lot of work, and much cheaper, to DIY.

Speaking of which, can I ask what's included in the 30/60k service?

I don't know why people pay for this. Go look at what is recommended, it's 90% inspection. We all have eyes that work to one degree or another. Anyone here can change the particle filter in 15 minutes. If you can't change the oil take it in and have them do only that and save yourself hundreds of $$.
