SV6 Trans service price

[CMA]

Just wondering guys if $180 is about the norm to pay for a trans service for an SV6 bearing in mind its obviously a 5 speed

Cheers in advance...

sounds reasonable to me although mine is an auto. I rang holden and they wanted a ridiculous 260. Midas want 189 and ultratune wanted 139.

you do realise that dexron 6 is twice as expensive as dexron 3 that the 4 speed uses...

thats why the price is so high

 

[CMA]

I was told its more expensive than the out-going 4 speed because of the cost of the service kit, gasket, filter or whateva

get a quote on what parts are needed and how much the fluid is then compare it to another shop with the exact same parts and fluid

dexron 6 is what is recommended is it??

 

[Boonz]

dexron 6 is used in the 5 and 6 speed transmissions in the VZ's

used in all the transmissions starting from VE onwards from now on
