Just made an appt for some misc warranty work and oil change. Service manager says it should have had major service at 30k all fluids changes axles transfer case etc. he says it about $1400. Does this sound right? Is all of it needed?

I'd say $1,400 is a good value for checking/adding axle fluid, rotating tires, and replacing the fuel and air filters. I paid $20k for someone to rotate my tires alone once.

I'd say 2 hours at 100/hour= $200 to do the service at a dealer.
Parts may be $100, so call it $300 total.
No fluid change necessary.

sorry but from a technicians point of view.you are going to give your 50.000.00 truck to a tech school graduate at an outside shop. good luck. not to mention it builds credibility with the dealer if you ever need that good willed part.and believe me ive seen these trucks come in on the hook because they forgot to tighten drain plgs and all kinds of other stuff.in my eyes 1400.00 is nothing when it comes to the safety of yourself and your family.

Well ****, let me just give you $12,337 to do it. Because that's really nothing either when it comes to the safety of my family.

That seems high. A 12k service on an h1 is less than that.

Make sure they're not trying to sell you some kind of injector flush/trans flush/power steering fluid conditioner type snake oil combination of services. If you read all the fine print at the back of the 'periodic checks and services' section of the owner's manual and have them done, the MOST you should pay is $750-$800.

Rich , Do it yourself. About $50. for air filter, and $20. for fuel filter. You can do these during a commercial instead of heading to the fridge. And i know you can rotate the tires. If you need step by step help, you can get it here. But dont give someone $1400. For 1hours work. Doug

I also say do it yourself. Be as proud to work on it as you do driving it. I hate people touching my stuff, thats why I have learned to do everything myself.

I have got to bring mine in for 30k service and I was quoted by the dealer to change tranny, transfer, diff's, air and fuel filters and a few other things for $525.00.
