Service 1 and 2 are kind of a scam. If you have carbon in your throttle body, you have bigger problems. Generally those two services are just spraying some cleaner on the throttle body, and pouring in some fuel injector cleaner.
#3 and #4 are almost reasonably priced. A little on the higher side, but not too crazy. They're not bad ideas at your mileage, that's for sure.
#5: you can change the cabin air filter yourself. It's like a $20 dollar filter, and takes all of 5 minutes. The mold and vent cleaning is likely unnecessary, unless if you smell mold or mildew. If you don't smell it, skip it.
