Default 72k Mile Service

Just called 4 seperate Stealers regarding the 72K service, 2 have told me that it's a minor service, oil and filter change, 2 have said that its a major service?

What is the truth, any high milage users out there had the 72k service?

Thanks.

Do you recon there is any chance that I could take it there and then after it's done claim that it wasn't done properly and get the rest done for free
(Soudning like a proper Chav!)

Yep, why not. If thats the price for a 72k service, and the schedule says certain stuff should get done and they don't do it.....

Just spoken to a 'Honda Specialist' and they use the Honda Servicing schedule, on which it says to change the timing belt. But they sem to think that there is no timing belt ans that it is a chain, which doesn't need changing?

Any thoughts?
