FL 30,000 mile service

About to hit 29,000 on my 2009.....a daily driver with no track. Occasionally a fluctuating idle but nothing else amiss. Premix with idemitsu, changed engine air filter at 15,000 (dealer said no need as it looked fine), only use premium, and ran Regane through at 20,000. Oil and oil filter changes every 3,750. A member has agreed to instruct/help me with the service. Anyone done one yet? Suggestions?

if the 09 schedule is the same at the 06, the 30,000 mile maintenance is a scam...it costs like 300+ bucks and if you have an AT, you get shafted even more with it cause it cover **** that your car doesn't have. All of it you can do yourself and you'll save a ton of money. Same goes for 35,000 when they want to rape you on spark plugs. Think they quote like 270 dollars for them to be replaced....

Ahh...part of the negotiations to get me to buy this car instead of a new one, scheduled service is covered out to 100,000. After reading all that fun you guys are having, that is starting to sound like a really, really good deal.
