I don't know what is common practice, but the Tweed Heads dealer wrote to me straight after the purchase and offered a free service at 1000kms. Which I gladly accepted.....

just dropped my car off for the 8000km/6month service, had 4-5 service people come out just to look at it(you would think they would get used to seeing 300c's), so hopefully i wont see anyone driving my car round, gonna pick it up later and will post details on charges

Spoke to my dealer, no charge on the 1000kms service or check up, they even include free car for the day if i book in my car 4 weeks in advance and they even send me a 10% discount card for the coming services. Berwick Chrysler Jeep.

Cheers

Turk, your 300C is hardly an average 300C that they would normally get to see

.

Good to see they showed the appreciation for the mods you have done.

$96 for oil change and filter at 3K miles. Seemed like a good hit to me. Got to bring it back next week to have the brake pads changed.

just got it back from the service ( took the day off work ) , gotta say they must of got rid of that idiot that used to work in the service department, 100% great service with nothing but praise for my ride, i believe the term the serv dept guy used was 'pimpin', had a few people come over and talk to me bout how good it looks, heaps better service than when i went there a few months back.

6month service came to $353.40 and the oil used was 5W20, only one thing they said to keep an eye out for the leaking Right hand lower ball joint( i think might be due to the big wheels, but dont really mind).

10/10 for service for the Phillip(canberra) dealer

My car has had it's free 100km and it's 12000km sercices. It has also been in for warrenty and repar work and I have been happy with the service each time. I live at the Gold Coast and work in Brisbane so they give me a free loan vehicle each time it has been in. The loaner is a PT Cruiser which is a bit sad but next time it will be a Dodge Caliber....a change is as good as a holiday :-)

It went in on Friday for some repair work to fix what the tyre place broke and unfortuantly it go a bump on the door. The dealership called straight away to inform me and asked me to hold onto the loan car while they get it repaired for me. I am so far happy with how they have dealt with the situation....accidents happen to all of us. Good news is I already had a dent on the door so that is getting fixed as well....saved me a bit of money :-)

Just brought my car in for 6 month service. Only done little over 2k. It is a 3 hour job. Told me service is $425. Plus $17 for courtesy car insurance. Also wheel rotation and alignment about another $100. REAL EXPENSIVE.

Now I know why insurance premium for this car is Sooooo High. Just ask about replacement cost for the side mirror chrome cover because of a crack by highway debris. Guess what. $525 just for the cover and has to order from Singapore.....INSANE!!! Those chrome are too fragile and I better paint them body colour if crack again. Can't imagine how much to replace the whole thing if damaged. Once an idiot open his truck door without looking and broke my other car's side mirror. Need to replace the whole thing. $500 include painting.

Does anyone knows those chrome mirror cover selling on ebay fits our cars? Guess they are for those without chrome in the first place. If they fit ours then I may just take a pair and paint to body colour and stick them on. So I don't have to leave my car to paintshop overnight.
