I was just quoted a cost for doing a B6 service, at 15,00 miles, of $329.... What have some of you been charged??.... Thanks

 

i havent had this done yet but when it is time it will be 0 dollars. 3 year/60,000km complimentary scheduled service for us here in Canada. granted it is included in the price of the car but meh, it is nice not having to pay for scheduled maintenance for 3 years.

 

I think the actual maintenance work done for the B service is an oil change and tire rotation, and the "6" is for changeout of the rear differential fluid-the rest of the service is primarily inspections of various things such as brakes, suspension bolts, muffler bearings (sorry-just kidding!). The bottom line is that if those services are worth $329 to you, then you are getting a good deal.

 

My second service at 15, 561 was $74.00 at Orr Acura in Shreveport, but I don't recall that it was a B6. The ticket says lube, oil, filter service, lubed suspension, top off fluids, rotate tires, and three TSB's were done under warranty, ie., Acura Link, XM Link (05-022), Transmission recall (05-027), Lost Onstar minutes update with purchased minutes uploaded (05-028).

 

Around $200 seems more reasonable to me...

 

I wonder if in the end the complimentry service our Canadian RLs would be worth it. It sure was nice taking a car in for service and not paying a cent.

 

Mine was $250 for B6 at Gary Force Acura, Nashville.

 

Ask them to detail what is included in the service and what each item costs. I had my 15K done for $160 which included oil, filter, rear diff, all inspections and new wiper blades. Only thing I ommitted was the tire rotation which was another 22 bucks. Sounds like a lot if that is all they are doing......Steve

 

I second and third the "detailing the service." If you don't itemize you'll get taken for a ride, so to speak.
