Has anyone taken a Kodiak gasser or diesel to a Coach Care location
for regular service?

If you have, what was your opinion on quality/price?

I have only bought parts from the Coach Care center 3 miles from my
house. I have gotten quotes from them for oil filter and transmission
oil changes. Their price were almost equal to the GM Dealer. I have
found that Speedco is better for oil change and chassis lube. They do
not do Auto transmissions. http://www.speedcousa.com/ On your way home
on I75 there is one at Beaverdam, OH. Its across from Flying J.

Thanks. Beaverdam is an automatic gas stop for us - last FJ before we cross the border.

This year I hope we are going to Jayco factory on the way home. I doubt that Jayco does annual maintenance and 5000 mile Allison filter but I might ask them.

Don, We took our Seneca to Coach Care at Harrisburg, PA to have oil,
filter and maintainence done on our generator. We were on the road,
they took us right in, had the work done on time and as promised, and
even had a doggie treat for Buster. I have also used the Coach Care in
Columbia SC and Spartanburg SC with similar results on a previous
coach. To my mind, they are good guys to do business with.

Don, I have noticed on some forums people saying that the 8.1 L
only held 6 or 7 quarts of oil. I think it was older models and I
don't remember the brand name of the MH. However, your Jayco holds 10
quarts WITH a filter change. Mine actually only held about 9 1/2 or
so. Anyway, just wanted to make sure you were aware of that, and I
am sure you are.

Thanks Mike. I'm going to go out and get the manual (it is parked next to our park model) and check the specs and I also want to see what the lube recommendations are with respeoct to the type of grease. I'm going to get a grease gun and do the 5k/6 month lube myself as it has been sitting here since Oct 30 and will not be moving until April when we head north.

Don, IIRC, about $128.00- That was for oil, filter, and some other
small part- We had been out at a ranch in Montana, and the repairman
spent an extra half hour on the job, did a thorough job, as we watched
him.... had a great comment, telling me that there was enough dirt in
the filters to grow potatoes.......
Think the flat rate was 85 an hour, which is comparable to Camping World
