Hi, I have a the vehicle listed above My16 RB3, 1.4 Active Auto. My car had a 60,000 logbook service done yesterday, the ODO reading is 47,987. My question is the service guy told recommended I have Fuel System Service to help restore lost economy and performance as I had mentioned to him that the car sometimes didn't get moving when I accelerate to go up a hill or take off from traffic lights. In the previous service a year ago they adjusted this as I was told on this car, the car adjusts to the drivers driving habits. This service was charged at: Labor, $114.00 and the actual Injector Max Fuel Cleaner was $139.64. I have since asked my brother about this and he was disgusted that they recommended and performed this service when the km's didn't warrant this service at this time. Also they recommended a brake flush, as they told me that the fluid may at some point start to heat up and. Start bubbling and that is not safe. This cost me another $120.00. The actual service was $350.00, so all up they charged me $795.00. I am sure they did an up sell on me, as I don't know very much about cars. Can you please tell me if I am correct in assuming this?
