    Default ridiculous maintenance charges

    Has anybody on here also noticed how ridiculous the prices are at the dealerships where you bought your Spyder? For the nine thousand mile check up the manager wanted $400 plus parts

    my theory............

    IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT.

    change oil and filters, and keep an eye on stuff. Fix it if it needs to be fixed.

    Default YES

    Yes, everyone has been a victom of the
    staggeringly high cost for service
    I think BRP & their dealers think they
    are in the same class as Ferrari.
    Many if not most folks learn to do their own
    service work,
    Hey on the up side... we do love our Spyders

    Default $506

    heading to Nova Scotia on the 10th... had my SPYD3R serviced last week, it took 2 hrs to: mount a new rear tire, oil & filter, tranny filter, gas filter, all for a measly $506... that tranny filter is a killer... $100+ just for that...

    Yes, "we do love our Spyders". When you talk about the "cost of maintenance", just ask yourself "How much have I spent on FARKLES?" I just dropped nearly $600.00 yesterday on "stuff" to make my wife more comfortable as a passenger. At least that is my excuse.
