but wait till you get to the 60k service..tune, differential, transmission fluids, (dont beleive fluid changes every 30k are the norm) timing belt.........I still beleive the scheduled maintenance costs are high for KIA...."major" servicing every 30K isnt the norm.....

my 04 chevy doesnt have its first major service until 100K....and its simply tune up and coolant changes...it comes with a sealed transmission...doesnt even have a dipstick.....
