JoeG Member 92 Member For: 21y 1m 25d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 27/10/04 07:25 AM Share Posted 27/10/04 07:25 AM I have got my BA XR8 booked in this Friday..been quoted $271.00 less the cost of the oil..which I am gonna supply. Plus I have a K&N air filter, so I should save some money there as well. I actually thought that wasn't too bad a price all things considered.They did say that there was a recall on the car and it would need to be there a bit longer than usual. I asked what it was, but they said the Techs would explain it all to me when I take her in....that will be interesting.As far as issues go, I don't really have any. I seem to have one of the good XRs that must have been built on a Monday or something!! No pronouced diff clunk, no oil usage, no funny noises.... Anyway, I am really keen to find out what the recall issue(s) are...Anyone know what they might be?

JoeG Member 92 Member For: 21y 1m 25d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 27/10/04 07:54 AM Share Posted 27/10/04 07:54 AM (edited) OK guys, I too have been using Jarvis Ford servicing. There must be big differences between the various locations, because I bought my car from Hillcrest and the guys there have been excellent with firstly the purchase(and yes I went to MT and they couldn't match the Jarvis price or imo their customer service), as well as the servicing so far. Fixed my issues first up at the first service and when I brought my car. Can't speak highly of them enough. Like I said I can't talk for the Norwood dealership, but my experience with Hillcrest has been very good.I have got my BA XR8 booked in this Friday for the 15000K service..been quoted $271.00 less the cost of the oil..which I am gonna supply. Plus I have a K&N air filter, so I should save some money there as well. I actually thought that wasn't too bad a price all things considered.They did say that there was a recall on the car and it would need to be there a bit longer than usual. I asked what it was, but as the booking service was centralised they just said that the Techs would explain it all to me when I take her in....that will be interesting.As far as issues with the car go, I don't really have any. I seem to have one of the good XRs that must have been built on a Monday or something!! No pronouced diff clunk, no oil usage, no funny noises....Anyway, I am really keen to find out what the recall issue(s) are...Anyone know what they might be?

I asked them to do the wheel alignment and wheel rotation, that alone was $184.00I have to also say that, I've just got back from a little "squirt" around the hills back of "The Oaks" and my precioussss is running like a dream. She just wants to keep revving out in 3rd .... oh yeh! <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Yup the 3rd gear is fantastic.

Steering Wheel Clunking when driving one wheel over small humps (driveway) - not fixed, it was originally looked at 3K service but wasn't fixed then2. Rear Seat rattle - not fixed3. Front Carpet Mats buckled - not replaced4. Park Brake noise while driving - fixed - now very bad rear brake noise when braking - whattha !5. Gears jerking between 1st & 2nd on acceleration and braking - not even looked at - this is getting very annoying along with the noise when braking. 6. Service Invoice $ 398 To summarise, not a Happy Jan. when I spend $ 50k for a car I expect it to be in a much better condition at 15k on top I expect to get the issues fixed up when reported at the service centre.can someone help me recommend some place near South Sydney (Alexandria) where I could get better service than what I've been getting.
