Subaru Forester 2017 - Hit my 60,000 miles. They quoted me about $1000 bucks for the full maintenance. Break down:

  1. Synthetic Oil Change ($10 labor, $67 parts)
  2. Tire rotation ($25 labor)
  3. Brake flush ($95 labor, $61 parts)
  4. Spark plugs (x4), cabin filter, air filter ($480 labor) Parts:
  5. $40 air filter
  6. $71 cabin filter
  7. $134.32 IRIDIUM PLUGs (x4)

All added up with tax comes out to almost exactly $1000.

I’m sick of paying so much, I want to learn to do this myself. I am not a very handy person but I am a good learner and hard worker.

Of the above. Which ones are reasonable for me to do myself? Which ones should I just let them do? Which ones are probably an over-caution which can be put off?

Thanks!

    You could probably do everything by yourself. Probably the most challenging would be the brake fluid flush.
