before i take my car into the dealer, what is a ballpark estimate on a 30k maintenance? i'm like 50 miles away from 30k and i've got probs w/ my brakes/brake light too. i'm wondering if this is covered in my warranty ... but anyhow...how much were y'all's 30k maintenance...if you did it?
i paid 545$ for my 30 maintenance........however soon after i found out that my uncle had a close friend in the honda dealer and when it came time for the 50k mile tune up........he charged me 80$ for the same job honda charges..........................yes honda motor corp are are greedy mother*********s
what do they do if you have an AEM CAI? nothing? so then it's just changing the oil an adjusting the valves? what else do they actually do other than look at things? how much would it cost just to get the valves adjusted an what are the benefits?
yeah, I just did mine and was charged 215$ for it. There was another dealer that wanted 375$ and I told him I'll think about it. The only difference between those prices was they would check my EGR system, and since I don't feel any knocking, I went with the 215$.
after my 30K, they advised me to have my fuel injection system flushed. I laughed
yeah, it's basic fluid flushes, and lubing of hinges. But hey, I feel better doing it, then not
those service intervels are a joke for what they charge. If you actually read the long list, it mainly costs of
1. oil and filter change
2. air filter change
3. inspection of brakes
4. inspection of hoses, clamps
5. inspection of joints, suspension
6. top off all fluids
And then they charge you like 200-400 dollars.
So you basically getting a very expensive oil change.
yea im at 27,000 and i need to go get my 30,000 done soon. Here is what my dealer sent me:
*Replace engine oil, filter, drain plug, washer, air filter, spark plugs, brade fluid and transmission fluid.
*Inspect wiper blades, belts, hoses, fuel lines, and exhaust system.
*Inspect steering system and suspension mounts.
*Inspect and rotate tires
*Inspect front and rear brake assemblies
*Check valve clearance, clutch cable, free play and parking brake
*Check/adjust fluid levels
*Road Test <--- A.K.A. drive my car around and treat it badly
what about 65,000 miles??? don't you have to get a tune up then?? i'm at 64,300 miles. I went to my local honda dealer told me for a tune up would be $600 for timing belt water pump and some other stuff. I said HELL NO and walked out. I got to shop around to find out some prices.
I think i'm gonna do it myself--does a helm's manual tell you EVERYTHING they do? cuz i don't want to miss something and **** my car up you know...i should pick me up one of those anyway. butdoes it tell you everythng?
