Change the oil...

John Eagle Honda here in Dallas wants $288.00 plus tax for this work...
Just seeing if that is out line...or just a "normal" price...

Thanks

 

That sure seems like a lot of money for them to lubricate all hinges, locks, latches and change the oil. Hehe.

 

yeah
thats one expensive oil change
you can lubricate yourself with lithium grease in spray can form, i got it from home depot

 

Yes, that is the going rip-off rate. Change your own oil and lubricate your own hinges.

 

does anyone even get this service done by the dealer??? it just seems useless..to me.

get it done at an independent mechanic. your warranty will NOT be compromised.

they charge that much to inspect things because 90% of honda owners do not have any idea of what is going on. This service is maybe 45minutes labor, and "clean hand" labor at that.

 

I had my 15K mile service done here in San Diego at Hoehn Honda for $89.00.

I can't believe that anyone would have to pay over $100.00 for the 15K service.

 

Most of those items are covered in New York state by our yearly safety inspection. The inspection is about $20. An oil change runs about $25. Like the others said, that's an expensive oil change.

 

damn i got my 15k coming up in 3k miles . i own an 01 by the way. very low miles

 

wow...i didn't know mechanics make $288/hr
