For my 88 Suburban I bet that service schedule would have been great. 19 years later, I know we've made some progress and my Toyota brochure / maintenance schedule doesn't include the VAST majority of this service ($600 30,000 service, for example). I imagine I should go with my vehicle service schedule-is there ANY reason not to do so? Change your oil hot and often. 07 Taco V6 4WD 5-Auto Re: Dealer service schedule or Toyota's?

However, don't under estimate what the dealer might charge you to do the 30K service <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> We posted an article to help owners save $ by doing the service themselves.

I'll have to get underneath and take some pictures with the digicam and get some info posted. I didn't note a double-cardan joint but I'll look again to be sure.
