Apart from the painted alloys, I normally get a teflon coat for exterior and thorough interior cleaning from that place.
I will not reveal the pricing of the interior and exterior job because I dont want others to gape at the prices

As mentioned before, the only difference I noted from SC vs. DC is the additional power at a prior setting. Other than that, everything seems to be just like the SC box
Ofcourse, there would be a pricing delta. However, I would not know that and you will have to contact RD folks directly
At 36,000kms my car is doing super awesome and brakes have faded to a large extent but, still stops the car marvelously ( This with original brake pads
)

1. Why are you changing oil at 25K kms? Isnt it specifically mentioned in the manual that oil has to be changed
EVERY 15,000kms. So if the car is not serviced yet, please do not change the oil
2. Oil Filter is changed along with oil, so no need to change this as well.
3. Air Filter is also not required to be changed at this interval
4. AC filter change is a good idea keeping the upcoming summer in mind.

If the battery has lasted for 21 months, obviously they will not honour the warranty claim is its only for 12 months. You should have replaced the battery like most of us did with an EXIDE when they were doing it for FREE
Anyways, I have seen your report on the brakepad issue on the official Cruze thread and I must say iam totally shocked at this feedback from your ASC
If you change the disc + pads you will be the first owner to do it as I havent anyone change a disc at such an early change
I have seen the pictures and I dont particularly seen too much wear on the disc. Therefore, I think you should get it checked again from a different ASC for a second opinion.
Keep us posted of the final outcome. Goodluck !!!
