Yep reckon you've been politely ripped you off for some of it. Mate I'd be jumping up & down on the prices you've been charged, especially for the radiator flush/fill & the trans fluid, that's crap.Edit: Service cost of $320 looks about standard though.

The actually do 'NOTHING" and charge you.

I see that they've recommended they rip you off next time you visit with new front suspension and new diff bushes... Have you paid it yet?
