i took my beast to the stealer .The service advisor told me that I have to change the 2 front shocks , the 2 front upper arms , the 2 sway bar bushes and the battery plus doing the 105k service . I paid around $ 2450 !
i dont know if really cost this much or i have been mugged !!!
But some of that you could have done yourself and some you could have replaced with aftermarket parts= big time savings. Either way going to a dealership for maintanence is out for me.

what was their reasoning for replacing the upper control arms? as far as i'm concerned those should only be replaced when the upper ball joints are going bad. sway bar bushings you could have easily done yourself, a pretty simple project if you ask me.
i think you got mugged, a little. $2500 for all of that is a LOT.
