Hi all , Ive just booked the GTI in at Boston VW for a 20k t & d service . They have quoted me £220 which includes brake fluid change and pollen filter . Is this about right price wise?

Good price but check with the nearest Skoda dealer (likely to be cheaper) as VW have a price match deal at the moment. Details/conditions on VW website :wink:

£148 for 2nd long life - but I had it done after 6 months @ 11k miles and now after 13 months @ 22k miles.  the next one should cost more.

I paid £150 at Vindis Bedford a few weeks ago for 1st longlife service at 15k miles.  They also aligned my Xenons at no extra cost.  That would have been done under warranty I suppose.
