60 K service costs?

What is a decent amount you would expect a shop to charge for all the 60k services with a fuel system cleaner?

too much, you can do all of it or most of it yourself, its not difficult and is a good maxima learning experience.

here is a description of everything and im sure others such as myself would be happy to give you extra instruction

if you do a little everyday, then itll save you alot of money, 45 minutes for the fuel filter because you have abs, 10 minutes for the throttle body, probalby 40 minutes for a tuneup, under 10 minutes for the pcv valve. you can use seafoam and pour it down the brake booster hose slowly to clean out the fuel system. the belts if you dont have time you can take that to a shop, but youll save money on the rest. oil changes you already know how long thatll take.

subjective question if youre asking those who do their own maintenance., call and find out what a tuneup, both oil changes, and belts would cost and a pcv and fuel system service would cost, problaby upwards of $400

i understand where your coming from ive been screwed twice because i didnt have the time to fix it myself(usually i had to make a long road trip)

or if you just have a lot of money(ill do your service for cheap in that case)

as man said your going to have to call around, shops in my area charge between 45 and 75 per hour plus parts.

you might look into buying the parts yourself and paying them labor to put them in, youll save a fair amount this way.

good luck
