Hello Alex,

Here is the list of the recommendation

#1 Performing BG trottle body service to remove carbon buil inside the intake system $91
#2 air flow meter service to remove carbon and deposit $80
#3 Brake flush $131
#4 Drain and fill rear differential $144
# cabin filter and ultrasonic mist to clean vehicle's vent and remove molds $136
Thank you again for giving me the privilege of serving you. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to ask.
lmao classic quote of a "service interval". after the first time I took my car to a dealer (almost 10 years ago now) I never went back.

Ask them how much of that is in the service manual as required. In fact, does our car even have a 50k interval? lol

As for the list only thing you might consider is brake fluid and diff? Cabin filter you can do yourself for the cost of the filter ($20)

Throttle body and air flow cleaner no need. And I'd say they might fuck up your sensor if they clean it.

Bottom line. Fuk them. I get they gotta make $ but just preying on people who don't know under the guise of "being the dealer" is tantamount to a scam IMO
