Yeah typical no surprises there f*cken mechanics nah not replaced but defiantly cleaned yeah autobhan probably wont have them in stock but they should be able to order em (personally I wouldnt let them service my barbecue) I get mine of e-bay $25 , I use a k&n air filter it's good for a million ks so k&n reckon I blow mine out & re oil it every 5000ks but I service my f6 myself , yet to find an descent honest mechanic

Yep bullsh*t isn't ,my local ford servicing mob want $480 for a minor service& $550 for a major, and all that is oil (probably cheap sh*t), oil filter (cheapest 1 they could find) and a air filter clean which seems no 1dose , that's why I do it myself now & the plus side I can service it every 5k instead of every 10k and use top quality stuff n it's still a bit cheaper than using them!

I have never payed for a service. If I ever buy a brand new car I would even have to think long and hard about paying for a service, it would kill me.

Supercheap ryco oil filter and nulon 10-40 full synthetic. ( don't use ryco fuel filters though)

I wouldn't even know what I get charged. I drop my car off at dealership. They give me a loan car. They service it, send bill to fleet plus. I go back in. Hand them loan car they hand me my car.

Kinda makes all my tools redundant. But I kinda like that.
