Ridiculous 30k service price

I recently bought a 2000 9-5 GF Wagon with 31k miles to replace my wife's totaled 9000CD with 190K miles which still did not burn oil at start-up.
I went to the dealer to have my SID replaced and he insisted that I have the 30K service done, for a mere $569. You have got to be kidding me I am thinking to myself, there is at most $120 worth in parts, what a ripoff. There is nothing in the 30K service that most owners could not do in a couple of hours. If I do the work myself, what proof do I need that the work was done if something goes bad during the remaining warranty period?
They will be replacing my rear muffler that is leaking(They had to order it) and I have not brought up the issue of blue smoke at start up, I figured I would wait a couple of weeks before pursuing the pvc/ turbo fix.
TIA for any info..
