    Yeah, I asked around and $300 seems to be a ballpark figure.

    Stupid question: do mods affect the service at all? Like will they refuse to do something because I have Eibach springs or a K&N panel, etc

    Well not exactly! They tend to work around the mods. K&N filters DO NOT VOID WARRANTY, and they can't refuse to service it or try to charge you anything extra.

    Eibach springs will only cause you a bit of trouble IF you have a problem with the rear bushes or shocks.

    HSV oil?? What's the difference to the regular Holden oil (viscocity)??

    $300 sounds about right for a rip off Holden dealer, unless you're on some sort of lease plan, do it yourself, or if you're worried about warranty, take it to a local certified garage (Ultratune etc), much cheaper and still keep factory warranty!!
