I'd keep doing your service with honda purely for the fact that minute you take it elsewhere and something goes wrong with the car your warranty is void, unless you take it to ultratune dealers where you don't lose the warranty.
My services aren't bad $110 for 10K & 30K, $220 for 20K & 40K and i know that my 50K will cost around $500.
At least with them you know that your getting genuine honda products put inot your vehicle.
I just did my 10,000k service at Scotts Honda Artarmon
Cost $155. They washed and vacuumed the car too !!
20k just done on monday @ GREAT WESTERN HONDA.
DAMAGE DONE $290
Also fixed the HANDBRAKE RECALL ISSUE.
I must say an oil change makes wonders for the RIDE.
LOVEN IT.
With the hole issue thing with dealers or taking it to another well ive made up my mind that MONEYs MONEY it dont grow on trees which is a bummer but if you happy ISH ALLL GOOOOOD.
Prolly stick with the dealers till my 3 years is up.

Hey Uge70y. Did you change your oil at 1000km or 5000km after getting your car. My FN2 Type R is due for 1000km service next weekend. I know they are not going to do anything but I was thinking of getting Honda oil filter and oil and changing the oil myself.. Wats ur thoughts?
Cylinder bores usually have a cross-hatch pattern for bedding in of rings on a new engine. As the rings bed in they wear off the cross hatch pattern to smooth walled cylinder bores in perfect fit with the rings. Guess where the metal goes from the cross hatching - into your oil, as well as out the exhaust. So 1000km oil & filter change a great idea IMHO.
And any qualified mechanic can do services without voiding your warranty, not just ultratune. Ultratune can do it because of the Trade Practices Act provisions, and so can any qualified mechanic. Ultratune just market this fact better.
