Took my truck in to have tires put on it a few years ago. I asked them to look everything over and fix whatever it needed. We were going on vacation- my wife was leaving a week earlier and driving, stopping at her sister's. I flew out and met her before we continued on. I got in the car at the airport and suddenly heard a big grinding noise. The front pads were gone and the rotors were totally chewed up. I ended up buying the parts and some tools at a local Auto Zone and doing a parking lot brake job. Now, I take whatever opportunity to look under all my vehicles on a regular basis. An oil change is the easiest way to make sure I do it.

I do my own on the Diesel, but I was in a GM dealer next to a guy who pulls in with his duramax, oil & filter, and has them do the labor and disposal charged him about 12 bucks. Not bad since you can not get a diesel oil change for less than 50 bucks around here.

I do it myself because I use Synthetic oil and the dealerships won't. 50 dollars sounds cheap, best price here is 89 dollars. Also I don't want my truck reprogrammed and the dealerships think they must do this everytime they touch your truck.
