cost of service.

[peter picard]

hi all just like to know how much is it to have a beat serviced.should a main dealer do it or can any garage have a go?also does anyone use msn messenger here?

Honda did a gold service on my beat for £160. But there were 3 options, basic was about £80, silver was about £120 and gold was like I said £160. But I had no service history with my beat so thought it was probably worth the extra £££.

I would say take it to a Honda dealer, they'll do a better job. But the one in Cannock where I took mine cross threaded a spark plug into the head :rolleyes: So i guess you run the risk where ever you take it. I chose to take it to the dealer though because they could at least ask someone somewhere if they got stuck. It is one of their cars afterall.

Hi there, I was wondering if the "Gold" service includes a new cam belt?

Blobrick
and the Belper Beat

[Wh1teLeopard]

No it didn't include the cam belt. I can go find the list of everything they said they did.... including removing the road wheels to inspect the brakes... and putting the road wheels back (always helps)...

It cost me a further £200 to have the cam belt fitted. I can't remember how much the belt cost me, I bought it from a member on here.

Hi There many thanks for taking the time to reply.

I may well be following you down the same road, see "smoking Exhaust" as my little Beat is sick, after being caught smoking, and at 13 an all!!!

I am trying to locate a Cam beat and valve seals just for staters, and as for the interior, well lets just say thats next years project

Cheers
Blobrick
and the sick
Belper Beat
