22,500 service

how much should this service cost me? one dealership says $135 and another says $90. How much did you guys spend? What services are they going to do on the 22,500 mile service ?


And for any of you in the LA area, should i use Sierra acura of Alhambra of Keyes Acura of Van nuys?

It's an oil change. do it yourself or take it to jiffy lube. Also a tire rotation if you want.

I've never even heard of a 22,500 mile service. This should just be a regular oil change, shouldn't it?

Re: 15,000 Mile Service

Which Brings up a good Point: I'll be at 15,000 in a month or so. How is it you reset the Darn Maint Req'd button again ?

What service they doing at 15K interval ?
Cost ?

From Chod's very excellent FAQ...

Before starting the car, hold down the select and reset button at the same time for 10 seconds.
Then while still holding them down, turn the ignition on but don't start the car
keep holding the buttons for another 10 seconds and let go
Turn the ignition off. The light should stay off now.


$135 seems like alot for an oil change and tire rotation...

The 15k service basically gets you an oil change and tire rotation. Everything else is just visual inspection crap. The pricing all depends on the dealership. They charge anywhere from around $100 to a couple hundred dollars.

22K service? WTF is that? oil chnage & tire rotate that's all you need.

Have complete check up at 30K.... everything before is oil change and tire rotate... perhaps tranny fluid, that's all.

don't waste your money!

Services to be performed: [list=1][*]Replace engine oil, filter and drain plug washer with Genuine Acura Parts.[*]Inspect and rotate tires.[*]Inspect wiper blades.[*]Check/adjust fluid levels.[*]Road test.[*]Inspect front brake pads.[*]Inspect CV boots for damage.[/list=1]

Did the dealer even ask permission to bend you over?

[*]Inspect and rotate tires.
- Can be done half price at a local shop. Not a big deal to rotate tires.[*]Inspect wiper blades.
WTF ?? I can inspect them myself, and I know when I need new ones.[*]Check/adjust fluid levels.
OK, unless you are a dumb blond I think you can look at the fluid levels on your own.[*]Road test.

yeah, ok..... I road test my car everyday when I drive. I can hear & feel when something is wrong before Acura mechanics can.
[*]Inspect front brake pads.
hmn, if you car brakes fine, do you need it? How about waiting till 30K miles to check this at the dealer?[*]Inspect CV boots for damage.

hmn, don't know what it is but I am sure it can wait till 30K check up
