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. :)

dealers always walk around the outside of the car and mark every single little scratch and dent on a piece of paper. if you are 100% sure they did it go and tell them and ask to see the pre service inspection papers*

* they may not call them pre service inspection papers but its the only way i could discribe them

Pretty sure they didnt do an exterior inspection on my car. There is a section for it on my receipt and they havent filled it out. I know the scratches werent there before anyway.
Anyway, they were only minor and after a bit of polishing they can only just be seen in certain light. Lucky for them.

Got my SV6 serviced yesterday ... 15000km ... about $225 for the service ... $60 for a wheel alignment (it seems the previous owner was a gutter-basher) & $40 to get a new key head programmed.
I also got a quote to supply & fit reverse sensors does $653 fitted sound alright?

Just put our sv6 in for the 15000 service today and the alingnment on the front wheels is out by tyre wear. Apparently these need a 4 wheel alignment which is being done been quoted $53 for all 4 wheels to be done. So ARM-SV6 the previous owner may not have been a gutter basher. Had this one from new and have'nt done anything to cause alignment to be out so its seems like it may be a possible fault that may be strarting to occour. Also their charging $173 for the service $39 for emmission service and $25 for the balancing and rotating.
