Any idea about the best place to service a FTO in Queensland? And how much am I looking at spending? It's close to 10K since the last service..

Thanks Simon.
Is basic service enough for 10K service? What does it include and any idea about the parts I need to buy?

It all depends on how kms the car has done. for example a 30,000km service is pretty basic but 100,000km is a major service.
let me know how many kms and i can tell you what you will need to get

Thats gonna need a major.. timing belts, tensioners, water pump, plugs, fuel-oil-air filters plus fluids & labour.
Start saving, think $1000 to $1500.

119,000 - 7300 = 112,500. So unless my maths is out it, shouldntl that have been done at 100,000km. Stop scaring the poor boy
Do you know the service history of the vehicle??
As said above the 100,000km service is a major service and one definitly not to miss.

Mate you need to 100,000km service which is a big nd expensive service
That means timing belt, tensioners and idler pulleys water pump, oil, oil filter, plugs, any seals if they need replacing etc etc.
The only place i trust with my car APC in underwood, cant recommend them higher enough. Not sure if they do just servicing though
