Re: 30 K service + brakes Posted by SWEDECAR [Email] (#112) [Profile/Gallery] (more from SWEDECAR) on Thu, 2 Jun 2005 16:40:35 In Reply to: 30 K service + brakes, coachb, Thu, 2 Jun 2005 10:48:12 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Without knowing exactly what you get in that pricing it is difficult to compare.
I can only give you my side of pricing.
30K service including filters and fluids (not fuel filter). Spark plugs, rotate and balance tires, clean out throttle body, read and reset all fault codes and adaptive values, full safety inspection of the car, add fuel injection cleaner and windshield washer solvent $400.00
Replace front brake pads and rotors $300.00 ($350.00 Aero)
Replace rear brake pads and rotors $240.00 but most likely it would be enough with just machining the rotors and install new pads. I highly doubt though that you need rear brakes already at 30K miles.
They also probably meant to retorque cylinder head bolts (not valve cover bolts).
I charge $150.00 to replace all cylinder head bolts, retorque head gasket and replace valve cover gasket and torque valve cover.
If it is in fact the valve cover bolts only that are loose, I do that for free when doing the 30K service.
You might want to look around at more than one shop for pricing.
But one thing that is more important than the price is if the shop knows what they are doing.
It can easily be very costly if they mess something up.
