17 F-Pace Transmission Service
I have been quoted a ridiculous $1400 cost for a transmission fluid -filter change on my 17 F-Pace S. Is this really appropriate?
|
how many miles?
|
I have 16,000 miles on her, but have done transmission/differential services at around 15K as just a matter of good maintenance on all new vehicles (18) over last 40 years, never had an issue with any of them. Expected $300 or so, but WOW!
|
Fluid is expensive, the filter is the pan and no i wouldnt recommend till at least 60k.
|
This wasn't covered as part of annual maintenance?
|
While I am 100% for servicing transmission, you are doing it to soon (both miles and age). Unless those 16,000 miles were spent towing heavy trailer through mountains, you should be good until at least 60,000 miles or 6 years.
A much better return on your service money would be servicing brakes (fluid and calipers). |
