i was wondering, if anyone knew the list of services that the dealer performs when you bring it in to get a tune up so that if possible to do it at home and save some money on labor...if anyone knows what they replace, clean, top off, etc. it would be greatly appreciated.

Look in your owners manuel there are different service levels for car maintance. Anyhow they dont do much buy take your $$$. Based on 36k maint. Newer cars spark plugs can last from 70-100k, some people like to change before then. Dealer "replaces" the in cabin filter if applicable, you can wash it yourself. Trans fluid should be done between 36-60K, the dealer doesnt drop the pan and get the metel filings out, they just flush, you dont change the filter since its metal. You can change the fluid yourself its just messy. Oil change. New belts if needed.
In short look in the service book and decide what you want to do and DO IT YOURSELF. Saves about $200-300
