scheduled service maitenence

My car just hit 15k miles and I've only had a service maitenence at 5k miles. I've changed my oil every 5k miles after that. I've missed the 10k mile maitenence and just did the oil change. Is it bad for the car if i don't do the service maitenences? The dealer is asking for $160 for just for the service and I don't have that kinda money right now so I think i'm just going to change the oil again at 15k miles without the maitenence service.

yea...you dont need to go in for service. Just change your oil and filter, check you air filter, fluids, and your tire pressures.

You'll be fine.

And to turn off your maitenence required light, check your manual or search the forums if you don't know how to turn it off already.

yeah even the 30k maintenance is crap you dont need. the main things are oil/filter, air filter, micron filter.
