The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Hi
I am new to this forum and am really thankful for the quality and quantity of info here. Recently I have been experiencing a starting problem. But before posting the issue I am trying to do some basic checks and trouble shooting.

I bought a new PCX 125 (2011 model) new in Sept 2012, did the 1000K service with dealer in April 2013 (for some $300 or so from memory), The scooter has 4000K now (Mar 2014).

The dealer (in Sydney) is quoting $410 (plus whatever extra to diagnose the starting issues).

Guys, is $410 a reasonable quote for the 4000K service?

Where can I get myself a service manual to do the thing myself? The 1 year limited warranty period is long gone. Are there any warranty issues doing it by oneself?

I will post more on my start-up problem issue shortly.

Regards

OZS

what do the servicing comprise of at 4000K, anyone got a list of what will be done at each service interval?

Thanks Stone. This is what I found From the Owner's manual for 4000K Servicing -

I = Inspect and clean, adjust Lubricate or replace if necessary the following items:

Fuel Line, Aircleaner, Valve clearance, Engine idle speed, Battery, Battery Fluid, Break Shoes / Pad wear, Brake system, Brake Light System, Brake Lock Operation, Headlight Aim, Side stand, Suspension, Wheels/Tyres

C = Clean the following items:

Spark Plug.

That seems like a lot of money to be paying for the checks.

It is a lot of money. But there is a lot of plastic that has to be carefully removed. I'm probably in for one more factory service before I get the service manual and try to do stuff myself. Elsewise, the money saved in fuel will be totally eclipsed by service.
