Can anyone provide me some information on pricing for a minor service?
$200-$250 Inc parts & labour...
Be about an hour's labour + oil etc
Thanks for the reply @SarcasticOne I am currently getting a service done and they have told me they need to also flush the brakes and power steering fluids?? For this they have said it will be $420+.. does this seem a little excessive? Just don't want to be ripped off, being a girl is quite difficult when dealing with mechanics.
Ah, if they doing all that, then yeah, $400 sounds about right...
A lot of workshops charge around $100 an hour and usually there is a bit of a mark up on fluids as well...
Probably looking at 2 hours of labour + fluids :(
One workshop charged me $350 on top of usual service for rear brake install... 2x 125/hr + fluids... Wasn't overly impressed by that...
Too easy. Thanks for that!
Only ever had my old car serviced by a friend who was a mechanic, so I'm now clueless to the cost of legitimate servicing...
Welcome and congratulations on the 'new car'. :)
Canberra car servicing does feel pricey, but you have the opportunity to build rapport with the mechanic and there are few tales of dodgy mechanics in a town (city) this size. When in doubt, ring a Sydney Mazda dealer for a service quote and if it's WAY cheaper, question the local mechanic. It's what I've done (as a girl) in the past for reassurance.
