What did you pay for your Service?
Hi,
Just put my VZ ute (175) in for it's 15,000km service and got charged $227.00.
Is this price the norm and what are some of your prices that you have been charged?
Awaiting Responses

Same price for my V8 service at 10000kms.
Loads of checks??? I had an oil/filter change at 3000 and that cost $65 only. Go figure

Mate, make sure you get it all in writing about the 3 yrs free servicing, I know someone who brought a holden from same dealership. In short it was all void when mods were made to motor.

50,000km service on my VYII SS was $125.00 from the local mechanic from around the corner. Found him a couple of years ago - good "old fasioned" mechanic who does a propper job. eg brakes need replacing when brakes need replacing as opposed to "we want to make some money so all cars today need new brakes".

That's the way to go IMO..Some reputable places these days, can service your car without voiding your warranty, logbook services.

Took my ute in today for 10,000 service and repair fuel guage.(already been in once for this)
Got charged $211 for what is pretty much just an engine oil and filter change. Didnt even attempt the fuel guage and to top it all off left 2 nice scratches on 1 side of my car.
Holden can go **** a goat.

Might I add, this nice work was done at Bunbury Holden so if your in the south west of WA be sure to avoid them.
