Good old TB & injector cleaning service. THAT is where they are raping you. Dealerships almost always try to sell this service and at a ridiculous price.

Take $100 of that amount and buy all your maintenance parts online or in store such as filters, plugs, oil, MAF & TB cleaner.

Then go spend $550 on a nice set of basic mechanics tools, jack and jack stands plus a case of beer and be happy you actually got something for that $650

It says to cahnge the trans fluid along with the other services (plugs, diff. fluid) once the vehicle requires an oil change after reaching 100k. It does not say this is the first oil change for the vehicle. This information is out of the 2011 owners manual section 11-6. I was wrong about the 30k part that is actualy 50k for severe. I'm not sure why it looks like seperate paragraphs this is a single section cut and paste.

The way you posted it it sounds like its saying that you first change the engine oil after 100,000 miles. Sorry
