30,000 mile service
I've done a search, no clear answers. I'm coming upon the 30,000 mile mark.
I don't have the time, skill, nor patience to do any of the work myself.
What would you recommend?
I'm sure I would save some money by getting the work done at a service place other than the dealer, but would they be able to adjust the valve lash properly?
How much should the whole thing cost at the dealer vs. non-dealer?

I purchased my 2004 RA with that "best backed cars on the planet" deal or whatever. Basically 30K, 60K, and every other oil change is covered by mitsu. IIRC the 30K service is a valve lash adjust, cabin air filter, and they check your brakes. I have the dealership do my work, for what I've needed done they have been as reasonable as anyone else.

Only if you bought the car during the promotion, which was late summer/early fall of 04. Basically, the warranty was 100,000 mile drivetrain + 60,000 miles free maintenence. There were catches, and I never took advantage of having the free maintenence, but it was a definite perk for your average Joe.

So is 600$$$ for a 30k service sound right?? South Coast Mitsu in OC CA gave me that price and I've seen on other posts that they charge 400...Anyone confirm if thats a rip off. THX

600 is a rip off, rockville in md charges 400 and some change to do the 30k check up.
