Yeah this dealership is notorious for excessive pricing. Had my '06 Dodge MegaCab in for Takata airbag recall, they wanted over $600 to replace my leaking low pressure steering pump hose. I knew it was leaking, just kept topping it off. Figured I'd replace it, $23 on Amazon, about $12 in fluids and an hour of my time. They had around 2k in "recommended" services on that visit, all upsell BS.

The prices do seem excessive, even by dealership standards. Here's what I paid for 2007 Yaris in Canada, parts and labor combined, in CDN, recently (worth about 75 cents, shop labor at 120 CAD/hr nominal):

Replace coolant: 88.93
Transmission flush: 123.65
EFI system service: 150.90

And the dealership charged $25 for the labor, for replacing cabin air filter. I find them a little excessive, based on the opinions on this forum. Your numbers seem a little extreme.
