Default Maintenance Schedule

Ok, I just took my 06 Envoy to the dealer for a checkup 37k miles. Wife is taking it on a road trip later this week.. I asked the dealer to do an oil change, which I never do, but the wife felt better about them doing it and doing a full checkup....

They just called.. They said that I needed the tires rotated and balanced.. BS. They are BRAND NEW tires!!!

Then he procedes to say I need a radiator flush and fill, Transmission flush and fill, transfer case, Fuel injectors cleaned, intake cleaned, etc., etc., etc. Almost $1,000 in maintenance....

I've been a car guy for years (Camaro's mostly). So I am calling BS on this, maybe someone with more experience with the Envoy's can chime in and tell me if I really need to do all this with a 2 year old Envoy with 37k miles.

Thanks!!

Troy
