Costs for yearly maintenance

[RomanianJazz]

I'm up for the annual inspection and fluid / filter changes soon, and I'm curious what the prices are in other countries.

The usual yearly inspection + oil and filters are around 250 euros in my area, and for the brake fluid change they said an extra 100. Seems expensive, especially for eastern europe, so Im curious how much does it cost in other countries.

My first inpection, oil and filter change after about 10 months and 17.000 kilometers set me back €450. I was shocked by this amount invoiced by my local Honda dealer in Te Netherlands.

@ The Duke,

wow.. , and I thought I paid a lot with € 332 for my first service after 12 months / 7700 km.
It included codes A, B and 2,  plus tyre rotation front <> rear.
But to my surprise they also washed it. and vacuum-cleaned the interior.
Seems a big difference between dealers in The Netherlands !

The first service (2022) after 19957 km cost 296.39 euros. The 2nd service (2023) after 33381 km cost 306.67 euros and the third service (2024) including replacing brake fluid cost 542.43 for my Jazz Executive.

Do you guys in the EU not have the 5 year service plan option?

I was given the service/warranty plan when I purchased the car. This means the service costs for 5 years just come under the one charge, which was around 500 euro.

Or having taken out the Honda finance deal, and paying it off early in six months, with an interest charge of approximately £110, the five years maintenance was free!

I would have thought this was only a UK option.

I have not looked into the maintenance contracts offered.

In Romania, you only get roadside assistance as an included 'bonus'. 450 euros for oil and filters is crazy, parts should be a maximum of 150.

I wanted to buy my own OEM oil/air filters to cut down some of the costs, but I can only find them in the U.K. and shipping invalidates any savings.

How much? An oil filter and quality oil can be bought retail at c£40ish, so they will be costing them less. How do they justify the rest of the charge for what is essentialy a quick check over and completing a tick list form? Ouch.
