How much should a tune up cost?

[BlackHopeDC5]

Im at 42,000 and its time for a tune up..How much should a tune up run...i got quoted around 150 if i buy the fuel filter and plugs.. I know I should do it myself but i am not going to.

Your not gonna change your own plugs or fuel filter? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH Thats like a 15 minute job... Its only ~$25 for an oe filter(~$15 for a napa one) and ~$20 for a nice set of ngk plugs.

Depends on what tune up needs to be done.

Stuff like plugs and filters are something you can do.

Learn to do the small stuff yourself, then take it to the shop if neccessary.

In fact, I replaced my rotors and pads yesterday that would of costed me about $130.

99% of shops consider a 50k tune just plugs and fuel filter with an "inspection" aka waste of money.

$150.00? If you buy the parts. Does that come with Astroglide or KY?

Because you are taking it ITB

C'mon! D or B-series plugs are ridiculously easy.

the acura dealership just quoted me $575.00 for a full tune up, and an additional $30 for a full synthetic oil change.
my car goes in on thursday.

but my car's an integra gsr, so it's more expensive

i know you guys usually say stuff like this so i dont really care but a tune up isnt just changing a fuel filter and sparkplugs. But u knew that didnt you?...

mine will include a valve adjustment, complete fluid/filter change, full synthetic oil change, plug wires, tranny service, coolant system flush, timing adjustment, belts and hoses and allot of other stuff.

i'm not getting an air filter since i have a nice HKS filter, and i dont need spark plugs because i spent $55 on plugs about 2 months ago
