$3k?? really depends on what is being done. Does that include a clutch?
otherwise that sound pretty high for just a general service

Brakes are a really easy DIY. ~$200- $500+ depending on pads and rotors
Buy a Motive power bleeder ($75) and bleeding is super easy

oil change - super easy DIY ~$60-150 depending on what oil you use
At 90k it may include a transmission fluid change, but that should not be more than a few $100 tops

to reset an airbag light you need a Durametric ($300) or a PWIS (big bucks)
A durametric would be useful for lot of other things as well, its a good thing to have, or buy it to reset the light and then you can sell it for $200 easy
