On my 4th service - I have been to 3 different dealerships and they're all bad.
My dealer gave me a $700 estimate for:
Coolant flush
Brake fluid service
Cabin air filter- which has been on car for 5k miles only.
Alignment
Oil change for which I paid and left.
I declined the other things.
I don't trust this dealer and have seen dirty air filter that they keep under their desks and show it to customers getting a $45 air filter change.
Are these things needed so soon?
Another question:
I am feeling my vehicle a bit sluggish since I had Mazda moly before but now got their standard synthetic. Fuel efficiency seems low too. I can get 6 quarts of Mobil 1 for 28 bucks at a Sam's club - is it going to be better than dealers synthetic???? It will cost me same as dealer charges 59 for his oil change but $35 if you bring own oil. Thoughts on Mobil 1?
Mazda ownership is proving to be a total s*** show not that the Toyota dealers are any better. I am contemplating getting my own oil and filter and going to an independent.
