Default $50 to Replace Air Filters
Just was browsing through the maintenance that was done for my car before I purchased it. They charged 52.50 to change the air filters. Wow. Lmao. They also listed 149 for detailing though they admitted it hadn't been detailed. These were costs associated on their end, so I used them against them.

On the certified pre-owned check it passed the cigarette smell check but was definitely smoked in daily.

They also missed the leaking head gaskets. Thanks to Corner 3 garage for finding that one.


I'd just stay away from dealers unless you can get something replaced under warranty.

They found leaking head gaskets on your car? I haven't heard of anyone else having that problem.

But on my wife's V6 Altima coupe they found leaking head gaskets and replaced them under warranty. They told me they have only had that problem on Altima's and Maxims.

Are you going to have a dealer fix it?

I had it replaced at the end of March by the dealer under warranty. They also drilled out a heat shield bolt according to the notes. Corner 3 said a lot of G's had leaks but it was hard to get covered under warranty since a compression test was usually good.


You can see the green coolant in this pic.
