1st service for the Opc Astra J today at Brian Gardener Holden in Perth. Hope all goes smooth. No real probs, I'll see if any updates needed uploading. Going to track day at the airport on Saturday. Soon to fit an exhaust and upgrade to St 2 tune.

Service went fine, no issues. As for software upgrades, they'll know when they connect up to your car's ecu, and if any are available/needed for your car they'll be told and they'll upload that under the warranty. Mine needed a Navigation update: Campaign 13-P-049 Navi recall. Dunno what that actually did though.
my 1st service went well, had no issues with the problems I highlighted with them as everything got fixed - all up the bill came to $299 (as per the cap priced agreement)
Had plenty of good comments made regarding the car about styling and performance and it ended up being when I picked up the car on Thursday is when the announcement was made about the Astra/Insignia/Cascade - the Holden guys are looking forward to the new cars joining the stable.
Overall happy with Metro Holden in Adelaide.
Good to hear Theo, I've worked at Metro's for the past 10 years and now oversee the warranty department. I actually remember your car coming in.
I can confirm the guys are happy to get opel back in house, and a lot of the components are shared on the global A platform so they arent much different from what we already had.

I've dealt with Plaza, Hamiltons (bought 3 cars from them) and Southgate Holdens in the past, and must say I you guys shat on them for customer service.
The day I bought the car in, they tried to call you with some of the warranty issues I had , but you had gone home for the day.

Yeah, sounds about right.. haha. Pretty much all the repairs carried out to yours sound like the same things I've had done to mine in terms of alignment issues, all easily fixed though. I have new front bumper mounts on the way from Europe because mine keeps popping off.
