Oops. Didn't know they were expensive......its booked in for tomorrow so I may aswell get it done and check the invoice.

I work around Homebush - is there any nearby that are ok?

Well it's upto you mate.. but if you take it there and get it done and check the invoice.. u carnt do much, becasue you wouldnt know the correct price it should be in the first place..

Few of us on here don't like them, i don't i've had them try and charge a fortune on a few things.. and I've hurd people haven't been happy with there results and talk alot of crap! and try and tell you to get other things etc.. to get more power, so they make more moeny etc..

I'm sure alot of the syd boys on here will fill you in with more info :)

But think twice man!!

Maybe contact phatgt?

Thanks - I appreciate the advice. Its actually there today for a 40k service (its a leased vehicle - so its kinda out my pocket.

If they don't look after me I won't be back i guess.

There are many places that you can go to service your Lib, IS Motor Racing is quite good....some of the guys from here go there. I work in the City during the week so I much prefer servicing my car on the weekends so I take mine to A&B Motorsports in Brookvale as it is local for me and I get mine serviced there....all my family's cars go there and they do a really good job and the price is good too!!

Well...$350 for a minor service (oil change, filter change, oil gasket, pollen filter) won't get my repeat business.

And....despite the service manual been stamped every 8-9k - I am informed I am overdue for a major 2 yr / 50km service that I can book in for next week! Ah...no. Firstly, its got 42km on the clock and has been serviced every 9 months / 9000km.

Although I may get the service done anyway for peace of mind as I purchased 2nd hand and want to know exactly where I stand before the 3 month warranty runs out.

Anyone recommend a Homebush ish service centre or one that is opened on Saturday?
