Replying to: imidazol97 (Nov 30, 2008 6:45 am) My GMC dealer sent me coupons for free lube and oil changes on the GMC PU I bought from them. I never spent a penny on service the year and a half I owned that truck. By contrast the Toyota dealer across the street from GMC where I bought my Sequoia charged nearly $60 for the 5000 mile oil change. They used cheapo 30 weight dyno oil. Synthetic would have added $70 to the price. I will probably change to synthetic at 10k miles. I will do it myself for that kind of rip-off price. VW only charged me $53 for my Passat TDI and it was very specialized oil. I would rate Toyota service near the bottom. With Lexus at the bottom of the pond. Lexus is good till your warranty runs out. If you don't trade-in for a new car they stick the royal knife in you. While our LS400 is a very good car, it was very expensive maintenance until we found a good indy garage. Only time will tell if that changes when GM is gone. |

Horrid fit n' finish and rattles are the icing on the cake.
