Sounds like he is trying to induce you to take more money out of your
wallet. Just let them do what the book says. Scams like that are the
reason I never have a dealer service my cars.

I have a '06 Sonata LX with 20000 Kms on it , so approx 12500 miles and
never heard about "induction service"

Can't answer about the "induction service" but for the Niotrogen.

I have my tires filled with nitrogen, and I am very happy with it. Pressure
is more stable, and I am "supposed" to save on gas. True or not??

But I will never pay for Nitrogne. My local Costco Wholesale fills tires
with Nitrogen for... free! I don't think it worth $39.

I agree with the "Nitrogen approach"! That's why I always make sure I have
my tires filled with the 80%-Nitrogen formula. And it's FREE!

How stable is more stable? I've not added or let out any air in my tires in
15 months and 31,000 miles. Aside from making my billfold a little lighter,
I don't see any advantage to nitrogen. Perhaps in 200 mph race cars and
jumbo jets that go to 36000 feet and back, but not in my everyday driver.

It's not just the dealer that's trying to sell unnecessary services. I've
seen cars come from Mechants or Jiffy Lube having fluids unnecessarily
flushed there.

I guess I can breath a sigh of relief. Today I got a letter from them
again reminding me about how it was recommended .. He said it will
improve my pick up, & I told him my only complaint is the V6 has a bit
more pick up than necessary as it is
Well I should check out at my local Costco wholesale whether they
offer it too.. I have the membership as it is so might as well take
advantage of fringe benefits ...

Because my employer offers the Nitrogen service, I was able to put some in
my tires for free. My experience is that the bleed-off of pressure over
time seems to have slowed. Otherwise, if I recall correctly, empirical
evidence shows that expansion and contraction rates are close enough to
that of air to make reduced temperature effects inconsequential.

Can I see the benefit, especially for those who don't check their tires
frequently enough? Yes. Would I pay $40 for it? You've got to be
kidding!

It isn't free. You just aren't seeing the cost explicitly.

Well... explain me where the cost is, aside the annual membership fee that
is good for all the purchases in that wharehouse. Never bought a single
tire there. They repairs flats for free, they fills tires with 98% Nitrogen
for free for all the "members".

well, i don't "REALLY" know how more stable it is, but I have it for free so
I don't loose anything. But I don't think I will be paying for Nitrogen. Not
$39 like vineeth said!

Where I live winter temperatures go often as low as -25°C, even lower, and
in summer temperature can go as high as 30 - 35°C so in winter -15°F and
lower and in summer as high as 95°F...

Well if I would have to pay for nitrogen, I would use the same formula...
natural air with 80% Nitrogen in it!!

You's one sharp dude! ; )

I suspect a lot of Dealers try to ease a few more dollars out of
your pocket with items over and above the manufacturers specifications.
Down here in Gosford, NSW, Aust every time my Sonata is serviced or even
has a minor repair looked at its " we,ll need to maintain the injectors".
This costs ~$90.
What ever this "maintenance" is there is never any evidence of mechanical
removal/replacement,
seems to be just putting a bottle of fuel system cleaner in the tank.
I can buy this bottle for ~$10:00 at the local autoparts.
The Hyundai manual specifically says things should not be added to petrol or
oil , the petrol
companies say its not needed and I,ve never been prompted by any other car
I,ve owned to have
it done and never had any service issues with the injection system. Load of
cobblers.
I,m with the other responder, what the hell is an "Induction Service"
Cheers
John
