Default VQ35: Where to Get 30k Tune-up

Yes, I'm lazy and short on time. Aside Courtesy Nissan (thieves), any other places you all can recommend?

Thanks,

Jesse

That engine needs a "tune-up" at 30k miles

i would probably stick with a nissan dealer, just because anywhere else is going to use shitty aftermarket parts, or not do all the work, and cut corners.
ive worked at both, so i know what goes on...

also, the motors havent been out a super long time, so its not something that every shop has worked on, and wont have as much experience.

Jesse,

I would try Ferman also. I usually let them and XAT work on my car when I'm lazy. They seem reasonable to me and I'm on a limited income.

Holy crap, they're going to charge me $350 for the 30k "Premium Maintenance" - For the list of things they change and inspect in 3hrs time, that's a bargain!!!

Being a wrench turner is one thing but saving the time and headache of everything they list, they'll have my business.

Shoot, I might bring in the 240 J/K, I'm sure they'd be confused w/ it...

Thanks again guys!

Here's the list: http://www.nissanusa.com/form/0,,act...-51041,00.html

It's a good guide to remind you of all the little things we forget to take care of...
