Service cost after the fixed price (honeymoon) services expire. :(

[Macca - 73]

So I put my 2010 KX-R FWD in for it's 42 month / 70,000 km service today. I've been very happy with the fixed price servicing for the last 3 years. The car hasn't skipped a beat since I've owned it, but to be told the service cost is now $310, a touch more than the $170 I think I'd been paying seems a bit rich. The girl behind the counter had a list of optional extras I assume she had to quiz me about, with wheel balance highlighted. She asked if I knew when I had it last done. I replied, when you fitted my new tyres six months ago. I guess their record keeping could use some work, no more questions after that. So the question is, is this a reasonable price to pay for my servicing? The list of checks looked just the same as the last two services... any thoughts?

The 80,000 was a shock for me not enough change out of $1000 to buy lunch. Its a 5 hour service and the 3rd row seats have to come out to change the fuel filter so the told me (not at timeof purchase though). I have 2010 kx-s fwd

Dont use the dealerships. There are plenty of quality mechanics around that dont rip you blind. Just find one.
