Hi all,

This is the quote I got from Long Beach. Where do you guy usually do it? Thanks.

 

wuts included in the 30k service??

 

Everything listed on the subaru website plus more (I don't know what's consider more). Car rental, free oil change (because I have a coupon).

 

looks like oil change/filter, air filter, fuel filter, spark plugs, brake fluid, the rest is all inspection. umm how do they justify $525? the free car wash?

 

just get it done at suby specialties.. they're certified and they'll keep the record for you that you're maintaining your car.

 

the plugs list at 28$ a piece so tahts alot of the cost air filter lists around 12 fuel filter is around 25-30

 

Here is the link of the subaru schedule list.

I am going to ask the dealer for a list of items that they are going to perform and I will probably call up suby specialties and check the prices.

This is the list I got from the website. Damn, we don't even have to change Spark plugs til 60,000 miles.

Note: I: Inspect, R: Replace, P: Perform

Drive belt(s) [Except camshaft] I
Camshaft drive belt I
Engine oil R
Engine oil filter R
Replace engine coolant and inspect cooling system, hoses and connections P
Fuel system, lines and connections (I)
Fuel filter (R)
Air cleaner element R
Transmission/Differential (Front & Rear) lubricants (Gear oil) I
Brake fluid R
Disc brake pads and discs/Front and rear axle boots and axle shaft joint portions I
Brake linings and drums (including parking brake linings and drums) I
Inspect brake lines and check operation of parking and service brake system P
Clutch system I
Steering and suspension system I
Rotate and inspect tires P

 

looks like its all inspections....id say do it urself...

 

I guess the one good thing is if there are problems with my car, the dealer will fix it (Under Warranty). But if I go somewhere else, they are going to charge me for it? As with the inspection goes, I don't know much about car. =P I guess I just have to shop around. I'll let you guy know what up. Did you guy do all these inspections stuff by yourself? After the whole warranty thing end, I am going to service somewhere else to save major $$$. Thanks for your input

 

i can do air and fuel i have those filters at my house

 

dealer service is a ripoff imo. and long beach has been a bit shady with me.

 

I say save yourself some money and do it yourself. That's what I did...

 

you didnt talk to anthony cano did you?

 

Anthony is like the only rep there, no? That's the one I do my business with.

 

he is the best

but he goes home ealry

he is the first one in and the first one out sometimes at 3
