Ready To Dump Some $400.00 Into My Ion

Jun 29, 2007 5 Replies

I'm at the 60k mark,not 50 like i said earlier,made an appointment to get the 60k stuff done,god this is gonna blow!!.


Edmunds estimates the cost for 60k maintenance on an Ion as $145 - why is yours going to be $400? What are they going to do?

This guy was talking about engine flushes,possble spark plugs & wires,rotatingthe tires,wasnt listening to everything,but,youre right,there no way it would cost that much,what a relief to me.I told him just the essentials need to be done.

Those aren't due until 100k - he is probably a crook.

Wires, what wires? Btw spark plug wear is in relation to engine rotations, not miles. 75k is about the normal lifespan of double platinum plugs.

Also, engine flush on a 60k Ecotec? Sounds like upsales to me...

I'm going to have a ''talk'' with this clown I talked to on the phone,now i remember,there isnt spark plug wires!,my mind was on setting up the appointment,then,he comes at me with that crap!,Whhooo! BANG! ZOOM!.
