Default Throttle body...

When I brought my truck in for the oil change the second time, they told me it needed cleaning. They showed me the varnish buildup. That's when I reminded them they had just done this and charged me $135 and I assume it wasn't done the first time but I was charged for it. The manager looked sheepish like he had just been sheered.

Total mileage on the truck is 112,000. I've never had a throttle body cleaned on any vehicle I've ever owned. I have a Lexus with 170,000. I have the dealership work on it and no one has ever mentioned a throttle body. Didn't even know what it was until the incident with the truck.
