40 K service ZRE corolla

[Modena]

Hi guys,

Im about to do 40,000 KM service. I am supplying my own oil and oil filter, and they are going to charge me $240 at Ultratune.

Is that reasonable?

Im doing it at Ultratune as I still have my warranty for 6 months.

what does the service entail? it sounds like a whole hunk of flying duck sh!t to me...

Rip off? Sounds like it to me also.

I had it serviced there before for around $150 with my oil and oil filter provided, not sure why the $240 now. Thats like $300 if they provided their own oil and filter.

I called another Ultratine place and they said it would be $230. So saving only 10 bucks.

They said they would be changing motor oil, air failter and breake fluids.

If they provided the oil and oil filter it would cost me $290.

Sounds like a bit of a rip off doesn't it. My Aurion can get it's major service from the dealership for less than that.

Toyota just quoted me $420 and $357 with my own oil and filter.

Wtf?

buy yourself an airfilter , brake fluid and provide oil and filter with it and shop around , if you can find someone that is in a smaller workshop where you can still get a stamp in your book im 100% certain it will be a ****load cheaper... for me to take my sportivo with my own oil and filter for a standard service and the "stamp" that im after to show it's had the required work performed in it's life it is 60 odd $$$ for me at my workshop of choice.

I didnt buy my car brand new... it was an ex rental so I am not sure if they had some advantage card.

Check a Toyota service place and get them to look up your VIN on their system. Should only cost $120 then.

I had some deal and they can look up full service history if its been done with Toyota.

I bought my 07 ZRE Corolla second hand as well and didn't have this advantage card, but when I booked it in for the 40K service I asked them to check the VON on their system and they confirmed it was listed on the advantage program, so it only cost me $120.00

Mine was ex-rental as well, sold to private buyer at an auction and then I bought it from him, it was covered by the advtange program when I gave them the VIN. Not sure how this happened but am happy with the end result ;)
