    Best service price is to haggle onto "Corporate Service Plan" when you buy

    I got a quote from a stealer for a 48,000km service - was quoted $800. I costed the job at an hourly rate of $150 and added the parts and oil at stealer prices and came up with an overcharge of around $200. When I queried I was simply told that was the cost - they didn't get my work and will get no further work unless an emergency.

Reluctantly it only got its 1st change at 25K - far too long IMO for a 1st change so I hope the filters are good. With my usage I'm quite happy to thereafter let it go 20-25K. I'd like to use the non-DPF oil if its available when I need to buy the next drum as the DPF compatibility compromises some qualities.
    Hi Greame,
    Purchased the oil from W.R & M.T Lumsden in Bomaderry NSW 02-4421-2111. Is it true that the 3.0l doesn't have a DPF ? Thought I read it somewhere in a thread, if so the normal 5-30 Castrol edge would do fine.
