So I have CarShield on my 2018 F Type 4 cylinder.

I just had my car serviced at the local Jag Dealer here in San Antonio. With just over 47K miles and having no maintenance records we got treated very nicely but my bank card took a hit!

Like going to the massage parlor and getting the full service! Actually before I left the house I “estimated” between $2k to $3k. All fluids drained, reservoirs flushed then refill using BG Products. Air filters replaces, brakes good, tires good, rotated, balanced reinstalled; lots of work. The oil refill involved siphoning the old old, condition the system, etc was $158.

What I have is a road map of what services should be done…

I truly hope you did not pay for a tire rotation. If so, you need to ask for a refund. All F-Types come with staggered tires (different sizes on the front and back). They can't be rotated.

Well yeah for conventional a tire set-up but do F-Type owners here get their tires rotated side to side? Check out this video.

cpq100 - I may be 71 years old but I didn’t fall off the Turnip Truck; I drove that into a wall and jumped down. I know they are different sized tires; front tires moved from one side to the other as did the rear tires. The tires were balanced and aligned.

Glad to hear it. There are some less than reputable dealers out there......

So long as they're not directional tyres!
