Their trying to rip you off....Even a dealer like Toyota only charges $79 for a coolant flush

(just got a coupon special for that) Granted you need new hoses but that shouldn't cost an extra $200-250

..And put it this way how could you ever tell if they gave you a reverse flush

...I bet many just drain and fill ripping people off

....I would check at your local parts store I'm sure they sell a "do it yourself" flush kit...If your handy you should have no problem and you could always lend it to your friends to use afterwords

...Just remember to "Burp" all of the trapped air out once you finish

.. .....Good Luck...Radd Guy
