Im at the dealership now getting a tire alignment, rotation, and oil change. I try to align the tires once a year. While I'm waiting they recommend I get a brake fluid flush because my pedal is soft and the fluid is dirty. They also recommended a fuel treatment because the car idles rough. I've only noticed a rough idle when the A/C is running, otherwise it sits at about 6/700 rpms.
I bought the car used from a different Toyota dealer. I had to have the rotors and brakes replaced because they were so warped and worn from sitting on the lot. So the brake flush doesn't bother me too much, but do I need it? $125 for a brake flush is a bit much for me now, and $150 for a fuel treatment is too expensive right now. Would a bottle of redline (which I've used in the past and have had recommended to me by a mechanic close to the family) be sufficient? The car has about 47k on it.
