Dealer service value for money?

Unread post by osx »

Was having a look and the interim service is £115. Seems like good value especially considering the cost of the recommended engine oil for DPF diesels.

In warranty or out ? An oil change and a coat of looking at with screenwash top up, easy money !

Doesn't seem good value - thought it included engine and gearbox oil and the filters (diesel, air etc).

Sure it is, but no one will tell you the life SPAN is, what, 200.000 km? ... :D ... that is, unless you take precautions and change the gearbox oil on time
