08 M45x 90k service

[M45xATL]

My 08 M45x is due for her 90k service in a couple of weeks and I was wondering what was involved. I imagine the serpentine belt and some hoses, but what else? And how much would this cost roughly?

This isn't for an M, but it's probably pretty close:

90,000 mile Premium Schedule has this listed:

2 Lubricate all locks/hinges, is DIY
3. Replace automatic transmission fluid, prolly about $200
4. Replace climate controlled seat filter (M45/M35, if so equipped), DIY, search this in forums, will cost about $28 for aftermarket ones (dealership charges $179.95 - WHAAAAT: all you do is reach under the seat grab the filter and pull, reverse to install, voila)
5. Replace differential oil, about $80
6. Replace engine air filter, is DIY OEM filter can be bought on eBay for about $12-15
7. Replace engine coolant/flush system, about $140-150
8. Replace engine drive belts, about $260
9. Replace in-cabin microfilter, is DIY, better than OEM filter can be bought on eBay for about $10-15 (dealership charges $119.95 a HUGE ripoff!!!)
10. Replace manual transmission oil (don't know about this one)
11. Replace radiator cap is DIY, OEM can be bought on eBay for about $15-20
12. Replace transfer case oil (4WD/AWD) (don't know about this one, since I have RWD only)
13. Replace wiper blades, is DIY, can buy decent ones at Wally mart for about $20-30 (dealership charges $59.99!!!)
14. Rotate tires (except G35 Sedan Sport and G37 Coupe Sport), done for free at Discount Tire
15. Optional: flush automatic transmission (flush with ATF), about $210

so prolly close to $1000 to have all that done

Schedule 1 and 2 maintenance (if you're not as hard on your car) only recommends:
1. Replace engine oil and filter
2. Replace climate controlled seat filter (M45/M35/Q45, if so equipped)
3. Replace engine air filter
4. Replace in-cabin microfilter
5. Rotate tires (except G35 Coupe, Sport)

so considerably less

mind you these are stealership prices from about a year or 2 ago at my local dealer...and assuming you have little to no car knowledge.
There are several DIYs for the engine air filter, in-cabin air filter, seat filter, etc if you feel like tackling those because you could certainly save a bunch with those items

good luck

Question for the group. I have to replace the front drive shaft in my 2008 M45X. It is starting to click at low speed. Dealer cost for part is $850. Car has 165k. Has anyone replaced their drive shaft with an aftermarket drive shaft or do I have to bite the bullet and pay retail? Any advice is much appreciated.

Welcome to NIco !
Your question has nothing to do with the title of this thread so nobody will look at it. Please re=post it as a new topic with the proper title: "Drive shaft replacement 2008 M45x". Good luck with this!
