Hello All,

I definately believe in good maintenance, but when I took my Cruiser in for the 36,000 mile oil change, they wanted $600- to:

Flush the Power Steering,
Flush the Brakes
Flush the Transmission
Flush the Radiator
and throw on a set of wiper blades.

I asked for a written estimate and headed for the door.


If they had said you only need one or two of these, I would have believed it was genuine, but with a list like this, it sounds like I'm being taken to the bank.

I'll get it all done, but by less expensive mechanics.


Who does your routine maintenance? ...and if you do it yourself, how do you open the drain to flush the radiator?


Thanks.
