Scotty, I have a 2019 Hyundai Tucson AWD, just hit 23000mi, my most recent service, at a dealership (i know I know haha), they gave me a laundry list of items they recommended to get:

Throttle Body Service - $150
Air/Fuel Induction System Cleaning - $245

Prices are outlandish, and I could probably do these myself. But it seems like they are just being a greedy dealership. With this low mileage would I really need these already?

*there were more items, but I already took care of them myself for a fraction of their costs

All those "services" amount to is the dealer wanting to extract nearly $400 from your wallet for no good reason.

Prices are outlandish,

The prices themselves sound reasonable. I don't think you will find much better.

The services are important for a GDI engine, but shouldn't be needed for a while yet.

Yes the dealership is trying to clean you out. You should find an independent mechanic instead.

Did they recommend based off mileage or were you having an issue?

I highly doubt you need those things. 


I wasn't having any issues.

Recommended service at that mileage:
Battery inspection
Engine oil and filter replacement
Tire rotation
Replace Climate Control Air Filter
Replace Air Cleaner Filter
Inspect Air Conditioning Compressor
Inspect Air Conditioning Refrigerant
Inspect Battery Condition
Inspect Brake Lines, Hoses and Connections
Inspect Exhaust Pipe and Muffler
Inspect Front Brake Disc/Pads, Calipers
Inspect Rear Brake Disc/Pads
Inspect Steering Gear Box, Linkage & Boots/Lower Arm Ball Joint, Upper Arm
Ball Joint
Inspect Vacuum Hose
Inspect Suspension Mounting Bolts

I sure its dealership greed.

Check your manual for the mileage of your air filter and cabin changes. 

Both are relatively easy to do.
