How much should I pay for a service?   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #1101 of 1205 |
Hello,

I've just bought myself a MX-3 1.8 V6, which i'm completely in love
with. She's a '97 model and has nearly 90k on the clock so i'm
thinking she'll need some tlc. How much should I pay for a service for
her (so that im not ripped off, im still pretty naive when it comes to
costing)?

Also, she's pretty smoky when I first start her up in the morning
(she's garaged at night) is this a problem often seen in this model or
do i need a new cam head gasket or something? Any help you guys can
give will be much appreciated, I thought it was best to ask people who
had real experience of this car rather than a trial and error process.

Many Thanks,

Lanu

p.s can anybody recommend a good garage in Berkshire/Surrey?

I think you will need to budget about £300 for the work you need done. Unless you have documented evidence that the cambelt has been changed within five...
