Title: Rather shocking price increase..!
Post by: Christo77 on 16 September 2010, 15:24

Hi all.. not been on here for a while ..but just back from the VW main dealers and what! Synta Silver oil 5L = £40.00 +   :shocked:
I bought the same oil at the same place back in march and it was only £16.50.. !
I guess VW are trying to bring in revenue somewhere and bang it on the customer scheduled servicing parts..but jesus oh riley!
I didn't buy it..now looking for another good quality/cost oil.

Also in there to get a new coolant flange, yep mines weeping the stuff out, common one eh..

Cheers

Christo

Opie oils do some good deals and you get club discount.
