How much first maintenance of new toyota camry cost?

I bought a new 2007 Camry LE 4 months ago. I took it to the dealership and they charged me high amount. I want to know how much usually dealers charge for servicing/ first maintenance of Toyota camry?How much first maintenance of new toyota camry cost?the first service should be at 30k.and be no more than 400 for this car.oil change and tire rotations should be done of course at regular intervals.i do them at 5k,do both at the same time.front wheel drives need tire rotation religiously.if that is what you are talking about it should be no more than 50.00.the 30 k consists of oil change,tire rotation,cabin air filter,transmission fluid change,inspection of vehicle,rear brake adjustment and cleaning.on this model,400 would be high,as alot of things are simply inspected.the amount would then depend on the local labor rate.



at four months old,just saw that,it should not be more than fifty.but i would have to see a list to say what was to high.goodluckHow much first maintenance of new toyota camry cost?
Do you have a maintenance warranty with this car?If so and you have done everything right no you should not pay alot.I work for a auto parts store for 7 years and all i have to say is legal rip offs.1 is the shops that work on them and 2 is the dealers.Know what you are doing before you go to them.They give you a list of what's wrong take it to a auto parts store find out the prices of the parts.Where they get you is the labor per hour.Which alot of times doesn't take as much time to do the work as they say.But like i said legal rip offsHow much first maintenance of new toyota camry cost?Depends on what they do! Labor cost are outrageousHow much first maintenance of new toyota camry cost?
You should be worried about the long-term expenses. Toyotas reliability has fallen. http://www.consumeraffairs.com/news04/20鈥?/a>How much first maintenance of new toyota camry cost?#1 It depends on the dealers rate of charge. Some dealers charge in excess of $75.00 per hour. #2 it depends on the service recommended in the owners manual for that period. Also your dealer location will be a factor.

In my opinion (without looking at your owners manual) it should be no more than oil and air filter changes, oil change, inspection for leaks, top off of fluids. I would think about $100-$150 plus fluids and filters. DON MHow much first maintenance of new toyota camry cost?
When I worked as a tech typically the first maintenance was at 15000 miles and would run you around 2-300.



The 30000 mile service started at 400 and went up from there.



HOWEVER, you are driving the new camry, so you should NOT have to change your transmission/differential fluid until well over 90k...like 120k maybe, it is called world standard...if you do not have world standard tranny fluid (a high end synthetic) then you will have to drain and fill every 30k with a tranny pan drop and tranny filter clean every 60.



Your coolant should be long life coolant and should not be touched until 90k (it is also a synthetic fluid new to 2006 and up models)



Your spark plugs are most likely iridium and shouldn't be messed with until I believe 90k



SO you've got

oil change

tire rotation

battery service (remove corrosion and check battery condition)

engine air filter (filter for intake manifold)

cabin air filter (filter for a/c)

possibly top engine clean

possibly injector flush

possibly brake fluid flush

rear brake clean and adjust



That's all I can think of off the top of my head...should go for over 300 easy though.
Mine was free, it shouldn't be very expensive.
