I just got a postcard from the same shop I am no longer doing business with after a $1200 (later $950) estimate for wheel hub bearings (NOT including an alignment or tire rotation. I later had it done elsewhere for $325 including a fuel filter installation and tire rotation. DEFINITELY going back to the second shop for tires when I need them.). They say I need a 90,000 mile service (after I got another one since I got my oil changed there 3 months ago). I seem to be up to date on all the fluid changes (trans was done at the same time as the oil. The trans fluid only had 15k on it at the time. I also had them put Lucas in. Diffs, t/c, brake fluid, power steering, coolant were all done within the past year. Coolant and differentials are due soon and will be done by a different shop.) and everything else.

Also I read up on Repairpal.com on a 90k service. My PCV valve is only about a year old (I even broke the rubber tube off trying to get it off. I had to get an incompatible tube, cut off the rubber part and make a new PCV tube assembly to make the PCV valve work correctly.). I know it doesn't need an air filter because I put in a Spectre CAI in December. Should I be giving this 90,000 mile service card any credit or should I just stuff the 90k service and oil change postcards up the Jimmy's tailpipe so far they spit out on fire? Thanks for any advice.

 

Should I be giving this postcard any attention or is there something else I should be doing with the truck that I haven't mentioned?

 

Your owners manual will also detail the necessary checks/service that should be done at various intervals. I have never taken my vehicles someplace for routine maintenance though.
