When your car hits 43,000 miles...

It's always a good idea to have the routine inspections done even if they are overdue. Better late than never!

Drive in reverse for 13k miles and then go in for a check up.😉

I just watched ferris buellers day off last night.....that doesn't work and results in sending your car thru a glass window then it falls several stories in turn ruining the car...
 
If you want to avoid costly repairs and annoying dowtime in the future, it would probably be a good idea.

Can do, any immediate/rough offhand quote? Are we talking in the low/mid/high 100's?

What kind of car do you drive? Most 30k checkups run over $100, and I've seen them go much higher depending on the vehicle. Just to give you an example, when I owned a '99 Mitsubishi Eclipse the 30k maintenance was $189. Of course, the dealership I went to charges $100 an hour for labor so that kind of tends to raise prices a tad

Ouch! Well, depending on Dealership prices in your area, it really shouldn't go above $200. Civics are pretty common and quite easy to work on, so unless they're doing some serious work on your car, it really shouldn't go above $200 even with inflated dealership prices.

I service a lot of V6 Accords and their first 30K service runs about $150-$175.

Better than $600, thanks for the info...

My 2001 Accord actually hit 41k a couple weeks ago and I finally brought it in for the 30k service. I dropped $350 for it but this is NoVa at the dealership I bought it from. Probably couldv'e saved some money but oh well.
