Hey guys, just made an appointment at acura tomorw for my 45000 and they are quoting me 270$. is this crazy or is it just me? I dunno if i should cancel or not, cuz its a lot of money, but on the other hand i need to take it in cuz my tranny is going, its starting to rev instead of switiching to 3rd gear. Please let me know asap. Thanks

dont waste your money on the "service" now your tranny may be a different issue - your car wont need the "service" for a long time - 100k. sorry for the "" lol

stealer tried to stick me for $500.00 for the 30k service. i said thanks but no thanks. not paying that kinda coin for a couple of fluid changes, tire rotation & for you to tell me my belts are still in place.

$270 seems very steep .. i just took mine in tonight for the 75000 and I paid $120

whats the 75k service all about, coming up on that quickly

the only service maint that you need are oil and filter changes, and tranny flushes (and im starting to think thats a waste) the key maint to perform is the 100k timing belt, h2o pump and plugs

for the 75000 they pretty much just inspected the whole car : brakes, exhaust, underbody etc .. rotate tires, oil change. You dont really need maintentence till 100k but I drive a lot and I just drove across country and I felt it needed to be looked at

just look in your owner's manual...it'll tell you want they do.

ok i just reached 45k on my TL and called up Mueller Acura in Schaumburg IL and they quoted me $$460 for SERVICE!!! BS! to keep the extended warranty valid do i have to keep up with my maintenance schedule? if yes does it have to be an Acura Dealership?

The 30K mile service on my dad's TL-S cost like $700 IIRC. I think they de-coked the throttle body or something like that, but it's a rip off. My dad almost threw a huge shit fit. Needless to say, we've been to a different dealer since.
45K mile service is now due, and no quote yet. It should be below $250 right? Otherwise I'd be right royaly pissed, especially since last time they replaced the brake pads when they had like 30% left on them.

The oil change is supposed to be included with any maintenance interval service. If they charge you on top of it, they're crooks.

I brought mine in for the 48k KM service and they charged me $480.00 Canadian. When I freaked (I really did), they indicated that they flushed the brake system "as per MY request" (bogus). When I said I never requested it, and asked to see the manager, they dropped the oil flush charge (but indicated that the brake fluid was 'dark' and needed replacement anyway) and never gave me a feedback card (they knew what I was going to say).

It's only this one and the 100K service that is really steep, that's probably why they try to make money when they could.

I talked to the dealer the other day about my TL and they said not to come in til 60k check up.
