Title: Second service
Post by: Truckie on March 08, 2010, 04:19:59 pm: Car is 57, GTI Edtion 30.
Im being quoted Â£240 for second service and brake fluid change. This is at main dealers in Perth btw.
Is that cheap, expensive or ok? :confused:

they didnt on the first service,for the second service though they asked for a quote in writing, i said it seemed a bit silly as what dealer would do a written quote !, so they did it without the letter, that said i did email skoda and they did send me a written quote :happy2:

Post by: s3dubbin on March 08, 2010, 08:37:31 pm: Sound about right, maybe Â£190 for the service and Â£50 for the brake fluid change, only guessin but i would expect camerons to be around Â£85hr, got my audi done through skoda for Â£70hr.

Post by: FamilyDub on March 09, 2010, 10:22:26 am: I paid about Â£145, less 25% discount (about Â£120) for my last service at VW Crow Road Arnolds Clark.

They currently have a 20% discount voucher for manufacturer servicing on their website... look it up :afro:

FYI, after getting the 'recommended work' advisory, an Audi Indy garage did my brake fluid change using OEM fluid for Â£35 + VAT.

Total about Â£160...? :afro:
