Well it was warmed up when I brought it in, and done within an hour. I did specifically mention the transmission fluid to the service advisor and he assured me they would check it, and when it was done he told me without my asking that the transmission fluid was normal. Sure, he could have lied, but I wanted to believe him. Perhaps next time I'll ask for a photo of the dipstick showing the oil. For cost of $55 plus tax for oil and filter along with the hassle of doing the work/cleanup, tire rotation, and disposing of the oil, the dealer price of $120 is a good deal to me.

For $120, maybe they did check the transmission, because the normal cost of the fast lane services as you stated is normally $80 around here. I make an appointment for 3:30, I'm out in less than an hour. That's a great deal for what amounts to $25 in labor costs.

That IS a good deal!
