Thats crazy f1tzy same with our 15,000KM service its a basic service and they want to charge $270 when i can take it to the brock shop and it will perform better after they do a service.

Yea its extortion. I took mine to a local mechanic who does logbooks and got the 105 service, and new front pads and machined rotors, and other new fluids (can't remember now) for 340 or something

Shauniie yea i got the same con, get an extra 3 years warranty if i service with them, its a huge scam if they are charging more for services which will cover there costs if they have to do something when its after the first 3 years, they also said they will extend the roadside assistance WOOPY lol

Just called around and got the following prices for the 15,000km service

Holden - $270
The Brock Shop - $280 to $340
Ultratune - $165

what does everyone reckon would you pay $270 to get an extra 3 years extended warranty ?

Unit 01 yes just oil change and filter, holdens comment was they were more expensive because you have holden genuine parts and also a holden technician working on the car and not any man and dog.
