Ive heard nothing but praise from MT...that's where glen bought his T from. I could handle $270...that's all ok..but my wheel alignment alone is over double what u got charged...its just so over the top to bring me to the point of saying its rediculous :ermm:

I'm a pretty easy going guy and will accept most things as long as theyre justified...but I swear...and I know this prolly isnt true..but when your young..its happened way 2 many times already - as soon as they see a 23y/o driving this sorta car their immediate reaction is 'daddies car' - wouldnt surprise me if its the same with the service department as well...up the price :glad:

Hey Cain, you were going to scan and post the invoice. It would be interesting to see how they justified those charges. As you know, I've only got good things to say about MT Mt Barker, but everything's more laid back in the Hills.

Voy

they might have checked the torque tightness on the inlet and exhaust manifold bolts which is a recommended additional check at each service - see the vehicle handbook. However, my dealer had no knowledge of this until I pointed it out to them in the HB at my recent 30K service and specifically requested it to be done.

Mind you, your service was still very expensive as I got a $130 BMC filter fitted as well as this additional check all for around the same price as you service bill.
