WH 50,000 km Servicing costs
 

Hi All,
Just wanted to do a little comparison on servicing costs. My WH had it's 50,000km service yesterday. It was done at a my local Jeep dealer and included all the usual bit's & pieces. When I went to pick it up the price quoted was $1274.00 all up parts & labour. I asked for a full break down of the costs and re-negotiated the overall price & finally walked out paying $1024.00. This service included a transmission & transfer case service also. The labour component was $500 and the oils were the next dearest items. I let them know I was unhappy with the prices and told them I felt they were excessive. Funny how they can strip several hundred from the quote if you ark up. Would be better if we got the real cost up front. Your thoughts would be appreciated..

Mine was $1008 and that was 2 1/2 years ago.

$1100 for mine yep fluids is dear from the 'dealer' proper rip off..

I know, it sucks my 2006 Lexus GS430 has never cost me more that $600 with most costing $280 plus I get a loaner IS250, car detailed and chocolates

Still better than the service on my 2 Toyota's 10 years ago at around $1500 each. Learnt many things to do myself since then and saved loads of cash.

What you got for just over $1K is reasonable...IF... besides the transmission and engine oils it included the front and rear diffs + transfer case and coolant.

Yes..... but are all the parts, oils and fluids really necessary???

When they charge prices like $52/LT for oil that's why. No way I could pay those prices, I do it all myself and I have the added bonus of knowing it's been done and the bolts are all done up.
