    Unhappy

    75-90 modifier 60.83?....OUCH!
    I guess the consolation prize is: It's better to have a VX in top shape & be poor,than...well whatever.
    Again...OUCH!

    Did you have problems with your wheel bearing before, or you just did it for basic maintence? I think mine are going bad and need to be redone as well.

    Don't want to make you sick or anything, but check the list of what was included in the "basic service package" - normally it includes the oil change and "checking" a lot of things - things like if your steering wheel turns easily side-to-side, if your belt is worn, if the door hinges need lubing, etc. Some folks translate this to "dealer profit". A word to the wise - it's always better when you go into the dealer for one of the routine services to go in with a list of what YOU what done, and tell them you'll grease your own door hinges!
    I had an XJ6 several years ago & the wife called and said they wanted to do the 15,000 service while it was there for $650. Told her to bring me a list home of what that included - oil change and all the garbage listed above - RIP OFF!!
