Why is the cost so high for each maintenance performed?
Looks like a glorified oil change for $500.00 and more!

Yep, this is the way the dealer makes money, you are lucky you don't have a new Porsche. The dealer gets 700.00 to basically change the oil.
Crazy right, do it yourself and save plus you know what type of fluids are in the engine ;)
Here is a guide and video to help you get the job done.
