Thanks for the input guys. I really do appreciate the advice and input everyone's provided. Anyway, I was charged $545. Most of that went to labor. Dealer mentioned that my car was the first Evolution they ever serviced for 30,000. Makes me wonder how well they did their job. As far as everything being simple, I'm pretty sure a lot of the maintenance work can be done by anyone, but I for one don't trust myself with anything. I'd rather have someone else do it for me. There were other things too besides just tire rotation and inspection that were on the order sheet. They actually replaced a lot of stuff on my car. Hey, at least I'm helping Mitsubishi stay in business. I'm just glad Mistubishi didn't go out of business before they released the Evo.

There is a label on the valve cover about plugs being Iridiums.

sucks that it cost that much. i got a '05 evo and has 10 year full warranty unless i void it so i think my 30,000 is free of charge. PM me, i saw your signature and i think you work with my friend cheryl christine g. we should hook up in the chi.

Dont worry about that dealer doing the 30k service for the first time. A new job just means a good mechanic will do it faster the second time around but his quality of work should be the same.

Performance tune up - just get a flash by any tuners. $400.
So you can save your over $150 by getting a performance tune by a tuner...LOLz...Mitsu is ripping people off.
