[B]As I stated earlier in another post, my '82 Porsche 928's 30K mile service almost cost me $3000; however, I traded it in for an Audi 5000S that lost 50% of it's value in just a year due to the "Unintended Acceleration" issue.

 

I do thing think that $400 for 30K is definitly reasonable.

 

my 15k quote started out at $95... after I asked ?? and informed them I would do my own oil change... cost me $42.00! Ask what they are doing , what the rates are and look in your owners manual to compare services required. I am pretty sure that the air filter and the allergy filter are scheduled @30K, in whick case the allergy filter will run the cost up.

 

Does that include cleaning your fuel injectors?

believe it or not, $400 really isn't that bad for a 30K service of a sports car.

 

The tapping noise is probably some vavles in need of adjusting.

 

jerrypeterson,

Thanks! Valve adjustment is included in the 30,000 service.

 

I think i paid over 400 for the service...sucks..

 

I was actually pleasantly surprised to hear that it's only 400 bux for the 30k! More often than not, a car like this requires thousands of dollars a year budgeted for maintenance... be glad it's a Honda!

 

believe it or not, but it costs more to change the oil in a Ferrari, and that's doing it yourself!
