Trans fluid is recommend to be replace every 30k on AT and MT change OIL - obviously every 5k at 15k I would Check your air filter, it may need changed if you live in a dust area I would check your brakes as well, depending upon how you drive/stop Check alignment Rotate tires-should be free with brake inspection

I haven't done my 15K service yet so I cannot give you an actual amount. In my experience with my Civic, they first give me a written estimate, then they work on the car. When it's time to pay, they explain what they did and deduct certain items that was not necessary. In addition, with some friendly haggling, I get more discounts (been with them for more than three years). Sometimes it pays to know and be friends with your mechanic.
