Hey Guys,

My inspection service light came on the other day. I have no idea what really this means. This ist he first time I have had this light come on, I have only had my 98 TI since June 03 (came with about 59K miles) right now I am at 67K miles. I called my dealer, but they didnt say Inspection I or II. Which will it most likely be? They quoted me $325 for the inspection. Is that a reasonable price? THanks a lot for all your help

Probably II, as I is around 50K (depending on driving style). BUT this seems a bit early to need II already.

I would get it checked, but don't agree to any work- just pay for the hour to scope it and then decide who does the service base on price and your ability...

Updated...I called the dealer again this afternoon and they looked up detail service records and they said that the inspection I was done at 25K miles, so the light that came on now was for Inspection II. He quoted me $695 for the inspection II. That Sound right?

That is what they get in the Washington DC area but you don't have to pay that much.
