Yep, I've had mine a few weeks back...cost around $240.
They said I was their second 10,000K service, and they had someone booked in for their 20,000K the week after.

Last week. $240, too. Oil, filter & tyres rotated. Aked about burning rubber smell and they inspected exhaust system heat shields - no probs. There's a slight rattle coming from somewhere behind my right ear, but we couldn't identify it -- only happens on certains types of road surfaces

Regarding the slight rattle coming from somewhere behind your right ear :
TRY AND NOT MOVE YOUR HEAD. you set yourself up for that one imo.
HAVE A NICE DAY.

Timbo,
Reference the burning rubber smell - are you sure it's not just the tires after a bit of hard driving? I noticed the smell a few weeks ago, and to me the source of the smell was the tires themselves. The reason I say that is because I stood at the front of the car and the smell was just as strong as the rear. The closer I put my nose to the front tires, the stronger the smell got.

Could the burning smell be a bit of the old clutch material getting too hot?
I reversed up a shocker of a ramp yesterday, while negotiating obstacles - plus a bit of forwards/backwards scissoring.
Almost like rubber!

Could be, except I really notice it after my run back from Sydney to Canberra, where I use the clutch maybe twice after leaving Liverpool 
. Perhaps if the clutch was slipping, but there's no evidence that I can detect of that (as opposed to what you would have had to do on the ramp :D)
Am interested if anyone else has it after a long run:?

My photo is becoming a distraction (but BVD may have something there)!! Clearly we should get back to something constructive, such as the relative merits of RX-8 colours or, more importantly, my burning rubber smell:D

I couldn't resist that
Have I mentioned red is the best colour in this post yet?
I'm toying with this as an idea....
