$850 for major service???

[clayton4115]

ive just been quoted $850 to do my 80,000 km service, the car has done 50,000 kms and was serviced last june.

Are they for real?? $850 ????

Honda dealer?

did you get quotes from anywhere else?

What car?

What was included in the Major service?

135hr then theres parts

isnt surprising one bit if it's at Honda

[clem]

Lol thats cheap considering I got quoted $1050 for my 40,000km major by hon$a. I immediately went to another mechanic who only charged $350, did everything by the service booklet, never went back to honda since and he has been my trusty mechanic for the other 120,000km's my car has run

[clayton4115]

well the picture in my profile is the car i am talking about

i think i'll go elsewhere

does anyone know any good motor mechanics on the southside of brissy?

thats not too bad
lexus charges minium 400 lol
my major on the rx350 cost me over 1.3K

might be just early timing belt replacement

works out to be 90+ cents per km

I just recently got my timing belt, ac belt, fan belt, alternator belt replaced for $150 i supplied belts tho

I personally wouldnt get out of bed for that much lol 150 wow is all

estimate 60-80hr for another workshop and buy the parts from Honda

wouldnt be a timing job as that's a good 1200 or more, random workshops would be a good 450+ all up for labour on it alone, pretty time consuming

[clayton4115]

well i told them the car has done 50,000, so they going to do a 50,000 service for $205, go figure!

[EK1.6LCIV]

just be oil, maybe plugs, maybe filter (mark it with a paint pen to ensure they do in fact change it ), tap the dust out of the air filter, check fluids and their safety check

still not a bad price though, who's that thro
