I have a Mule that needs to go in for it's first scheduled maintenance. Anybody have good experiences with service at any of the Houston area Kawasaki dealers?
I have a mule with over a 1000 hours on it. It has never been to a shop. I changed the transmission, front and rear differential fluids at 100 hours. I change the engine oil and filter at 200 hours. That is it. Oh, and I put a bigger battery in it.
Had a dealer try to do the scare tactic on lifter adjustment, til I told him it was a diesel. He quit then.
I took my Kawi in for first service and recall work, the dealer said they would listen to the lifters but 99.9 of 100 times they haven’t needed a lifter service on the first service interval and they didn’t feel right charging people $600 for an unnecessary service. Louis Powersports in Greenville

My local dealer started to say them same thing for 1000 Mile service and I looked at the service rep and asked if he did his own lifters on his…. He said he would take that off service quote.
Bill was still outrageous but I doubt mine will get any more services done to it in next year or two. I’ll going to do my one from here on out

I have done the same, no issues. Stealership has only done recall work.
