I just did my timing belt there after buying the car elsewhere for about $375 (belt free everything else was charged to me) and they did the serp belt too. My bill was about $480 parts and labor. I paid for a second key so my bill was over $650 but subtracting about $200 or so for the key I am guessing 450-480 for the important stuff we are talking about...
I told my dealer I did the air filters myself and the brakes are new (they wanted to sell me a brake fluid flush too as part of the 600 bux) so the coolant flush, spark plugs, fuel filter and oil change would total under $400, a lot less than the full $600 service they wanted to sell me.
Someone is trying to rip you off
