Just your normal highway robbery. Check the recommended maintenance schedule. To pump up their profits, they always seem to recommend doing stuff that isn't in the manual and most of the stuff in the manual shouldn't cost that much.

Actually after my warranty expired, I really didn't end up going back to the dealer, just used a local mechanic and he was nice enough that he didn't mind me bringing my own parts and putting them in for me. Have yet to get burned by doing that as there's always the possibility that the parts could be bad.
