This is awesome news. I'm seeking clarification if this extends to all fleet purchases as well.
I got mine through an education fleet discount, which at the time had a limited K warranty, and uncapped services.

[Surferdude]

Good news.
I'll be due for a 75,000 klm service in a couple of thou. Hopefully they'll have it all on line by then and I can make an informed decision as to whether to go with them or an independent.
Then it's 90,000 and the timing belt.

Interesting.

[Surferdude]

I think they've just aced the opposition again.

Depends on the prices though.

[The Gonz]

They must have been hurting to do that.

[FatBoy]

I'll still compare prices to what my local mechanic can do.

Don't think they have been released yet??

No. The story says they'll be incorporated into their website over the coming months.

[Doggie 1]

Which isn't yet.

I wonder what sort of capped price they'll give for my girlfriends car, a 99 excel due for it's big 90 thou service which requires the timing belt to be done

Well overdue by time... 

[CraigB]

She's only owned it 5 years and it had 87 thou on it then when she bought it from one of her work colleagues, 3000km's in 5 years is very light use plus the motor was replaced at 30 thou so technically it's only done 60 thou

[Dazzler]

O.I.C. 

[omegaspeedy]

Cool! Wonder if this will extend to NZ?

Hi All,

Capped pricing is now available on Hyundai's website.  I am not quite sure if they are reasonable though.

[Surferdude]

Thanks murrakami.

$245 for my upcoming 75,000 service and $925 for the 90,000 (including timing belt). I may do the 75,000 one as it will also be 5 years old soon.

At least it gives me something to go to a local guy with.

BTW. You find the info in the ICARE section.

[Doggie 1]

$925 is utterly ridiculous IMO.
In my last car I got my 90k service done for less than half what Hyundai wanted and my next service in the GD is the 90k one so it will be interesting, as it is being serviced at a non-Hyundai workshop.

I agree it's expensive but not necessarily ridiculous as the timing belt needs to be done as well as brake fluid flush etc etc.
I think the Repco Certified Service Centre recommended price is between $600 and $700 but I'll check.

I'd be willing to bet that the accredited workshop I use would do the same job for $500, maybe $600 max.

Your Diesel wont need  a belt though Dave...

I know that Dazz and that's the conversation I had with JH Hyundai with my last car.
I pointed that out to them but they wouldn't drop the price, despite having told me that the reason the price was so high was because my diesel needed a timing belt replacement.   
It's well documented on this forum.
