Grenadier Servicing Price Australia

[Steve.B]

Hi RunningFree,

I Had my Grenadier serviced by American Motors, AM group Adelaide on 3/2/2025, third of February 2025 for Americans, my Grenadier was the first Grenadier they had serviced, and they spent quite a bit of the day working on it.
They charged $969.80 including GST, for the service, and in that service they changed engine, diffs, and transfer case oils, oil filter and fuel filter, and replaced the climate filter, and did software updates, they also did all the normal checks including brake measurement's etc.
I am very happy with their service, and would recommend them, and they supplied a free loan vehicle.

Cheers,

Steve.

Almost forgot, they blew the dust out of the air cleaner, and washed the outside of the car and vacuumed the inside.

Hi RYAustralia,

This was my experience with AM Group Adelaide, it was a good one.

Cheers,

Steve.

Just had 30k service done at 4x4 Garage Canberra. Cost was high compared to what others have reported, $1307 (including tax).
Breakdown:
Labour: $731.27 (excl tax)
Parts: $248.38 (includes Brake fluid, oil filter, water separator filter, air filter and 1lL Ad-blue)
Service sundries: $208.63 (this includes $167.63 for engine oil)
Total: $1,188.28 (excluding tax).

Quite the list of checks, although some are km/time dependent and thus would not have been done this service.

However, was told that 4x4 Garage is closing down as an Inoes agent. Apparently the AUDI dealership, which owns 4x4 Garage, has been sold, and the new owners could not come to agreement with Ineos. I did ask about whether they will continue to service the Grenadier, given they have set up a new worksop for it, and they did not know at this stage. I also noted, that the Nissan dealership just around the corner had brand new Grenadiers in the yard. So the the RAM dealer on the corner.

So I guess we may be looking for other service agents in Canberra in the near future. I believe the Series Workshop in Fyshwick was looking at possible servicing Grenadiers. Having previously been a customer of theirs with my Disco 4, I can attest that Johnny and his team are very good and thorough, but you do pay for good service. Question is whether they will have access to diagnostics etc.

I have my 30k service with 4x4 garage on the 15th May and it will be the last with them. I have been waiting since early Dec to get my non functional Air Conditioning fixed and would have called them close to 20 times during this period with most of these going unanswered and no call returned.

My understanding is that the Nissan dealership will be taking over both sales and servicing going forward, but I couldn't wait for the transition as I'm already over 30kms.

The sooner we get the full service manuals and ability to reset the service reminders the better. There are lots of independent service agents who specialise in BMW servicing who will be cheaper and do a much better job.

Having given up trying with 4x4 garage, I took our vehicle to Tony Leahey Group in Orange, serviced by Joe at their Prestige Motors BMW shopfront. 30K service, I supplied the oil, dealt with 3 service bulletin items and did a tyre rotation, also did additional heating circuit flush trying to diagnose a weak heater output (it seems the airconditioning problems we originally had serviced in Cairns resulted in a heater mixer box reassembly which now prevents the warm side mix for heating the cabin... never noticed this living in the tropics, Canberra is a different story) All done just under $1100 with a job logged with Ineos to resolve the heater mixer issue. Unfortunately, the shopfront there also confirmed they are ceasing support to Ineos from October onwards - that leave Purnell's in ACT/NSW until an ACT solution materialises. @weeman like you, I can't wait for some servicing material and a software firewall breakdown for diagnostics to allow independent operators loose on our grenadiers.
