I just reached my 40,000 kilometer mark on the '05 and found out that the service for it is like 200 bones +. Do I have to take it to the stealership or can I take the list of things to be done to my mechanic, who I have been going to for years, & have him do the servicing for a helluva lot cheaper...then have him record what he has done.

the way i read the scheduled maintenance guide, is
that yes, you can do scheduled maintenance yourself
(or your mechanic) and it would be nice if you
document it (keep your paperwork).

 

yeah just take it to your mechanic and keep the receipt.

 

Just document, document, document.
