What is the going rate for "B" Service and what does it involve?

When I got my A1 service, I used info from this forum to get the dealer price down significantly from original estimate.

 

B service = A bunch of visual inspections, oil change and tire rotation.
Santa Monica Acura here in Southern Calif. wanted $145 for it. My independent Honda/Acura mechanic (S & S Auto Repair on La Cienega in Los Angeles) charged $67 last week to do B service on my TL.

 

For the record. if anyone's interested, I had my "B" service done today.

Charge was $99.95 + tax.

 

I got mine done 2 weeks ago and it costed me $225.
All you guys got it done at a great price

 

Why people continue to bring their TL to the dealer and get taken by those inflated prices never fails to amaze me...

My local, independent mechanic charges me $56 for B service, and I know for a fact he goes down the checklist because I sit in the garage and play with his Black Lab and watch him work.

 

Kearny Mesa Acura last weekend for $56, but they locked my keys in my car and it took 3 1/2 hrs to do the job......so it was free!
