Holden capped price servicing - cost, schedule & info
Matt Campbell has been at the forefront of automotive media for more than a decade, working not only on car reviews and news, but also helping manage automotive outputs across print, online, video and audio. After completing his media degree at Macquarie University, Matt was an intern at a major news organisation as part of the motoring team, where he honed his skills in the online automotive reviews and news space. He did such a good job there they put him on full time, and since then he has worked across different automotive media outlets, before starting with CarsGuide in October 2017. At CarsGuide Matt has helped shape the video output of the business, while also playing a key role in management behind the scenes, and helping in-market new car buyers make the right choice by continually evolving CarsGuide's comparison reviews. Driving more than 100 cars a year seemed like a dream to Matt when he first started out, but now it's all just part of the job - a job he loves and plans to stay in for a long time to come. Matt is also an expert in used car values, as he's always on the hunt for a bargain - be it a project beater or a prime example of the breed. He currently owns a 2001 Audi TT quattro and a 2007 Suzuki Jimny JLX.

Holden offers a fixed price servicing plan for all of its current models called “Know Your Price Servicing”.
This capped-price service program is designed to give consumers the knowledge of Holden service costs, with current models requiring more detailed and specific services than older models, which are also covered by the brand.
Holden models acquired with Lifetime Capped Price Service or Know Your Cost Service that are registered in 2019 will need to be serviced at 12 months/12,000km. This has been updated from every 9 months/15,000km for vehicles registered earlier.
Holden's Essentials servicing plan covers vehicles ranging back to the original 48-215 model: these visits consist of a basic service and safety check at a set price, and the plan covers every Holden model ever sold - be it sedan, wagon, hatchback, ute, van or SUV.
The Holden capped price servicing plan is good in terms of its length and value. 8/10
