$245 for my upcoming 75,000 service and $925 for the 90,000 (including timing belt).

I called the local Hyundai service centre today to get the price of a 90,000 service for the girlfriends 99 excel but they told me they don't have that information yet and would call me when they know but if $925 or anywhere close to it is going to be the price then that is just ridiculous  :faint: my local mechanic says he could do the timing belt for $375 plus $180 for the full service.

I know that Dazz and that's the conversation I had with JH Hyundai with my last car.
I pointed that out to them but they wouldn't drop the price, despite having told me that the reason the price was so high was because my diesel needed a timing belt replacement.   :rolleyes:
It's well documented on this forum.
$755 for the diesel 90k service.

Confirmed via twitter that this applies to ALL vehicles regardless of purchase type, so fleet purchases get the same capped plan.

Thats really a pro-active step by Hyundai right there :goodjob2:  On the negative side I haven't seen a general recall /alert notice yet for the cold start /rough idle problem my 2013 auto petrol Trophy  has (started after 1500 k service) that is very common, (having mine hopefully fixed this Friday)...It seems that the dealers now have a fix for this software glitch for the i30 but my dealer tells me that the problem is not yet solved on the Elantra....have not seen this issue mentioned in the auto press ar all ??
hope they are not attempting to keep this wide spread issue under wraps because it will go viral at some stage and not contacting owners in the first instance will negate the positive work they are doing in regard to customer support  :head_butt:

Just checked he Hyundai website for my 6monh old CRDi tourer and it quotes $295/$350/$355 for the 15k/30k/45k services. When I bought it these three fixed price services were to cost $289. Am I missing something here?

Pretty sure they said all existing arrangements stand.

There a bit lax in their explanations....

For example the 105,000k minor service on the FD Crdi auto is $280 the 120k is $570 yet the only difference appears to be replacing the diesel and air filter, both take seconds to replace.

Same schedule on the GD crdi auto is $260 / $485 same engine...work that out.

Looks like this new lifetime capped price implementation has also raised the capped prices, my last 15,000 service was $212 - now is $260 :disapp:

Craig refer my reply above.
The original article says this....
    Vehicles that are currently part of Hyundai’s three-year capped-price service program will remain within that program until the end of that period before switching to the lifetime program.

C'mon you guys be reasonable. These dealerships need to finance their fantastic overheads somehow.

Yeah those "free" Coffees, Cokes and WIFI in the waiting lounge have to be paid for somehow.....As does the second year apprentice who is actually doing your service....
