4th Year servicing costs
« on: 23 July 2010, 15:51 »
So am going to keep my car for now, but just looking at the 4th year servicing costs which is due in end of August and I got quoted the following quote from VW main dealer;

£340 for major service, inc oil, spark plugs, all filters.

£299 for cambelt change

£230 for DSG oil

your thoughts, sound about right?

^^^ No chance. I was quoted £289 without any haggling - after I said I'd already had the sparkies done and some hardball haggling, I was quoted £175 for the 4th year service. Seriously, it's getting done next week.  :evil:

^^^ That sounds about right. Remember to get the water pump done at the same time - parts only cost, because it can be done with no extra labour.

^^^ No clue. Manual, FTW!  :laugh:

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

When I had my 4th year service I took out VW's service offer of 2 services, 2 MOT's and a brake fluid change for £299.

I had my cambelt done for £299 after they matched another dealer.

I haven't had my DSG oil change yet as I'm not at 40,000 miles.

I assumed DSG oil was every 4 years for some reason?

am I wrong, should I be getting my DSG oil done at 4 years and 20k?

DSG oil change is every 40k miles but I guess you can have it done if you want!

strangely the marketing dept from the same dealer phoned up and gave me these better prices...

£229 major service

£69 for brake fluid (£99 if you have air con done as well)

£299 for cambelt, £399 for cambelt and water pump (tried haggling for just the part cost on top of £299, but they weren't having any of it.

for those follwing this thread..

just checked the Vw fixed price servicing offer..http://www.volkswagen.co.uk/owners/servicing/fixed-price-servicing?cmpid=ID662_35_2_27__23_42_1_1_3

It lists the the DSG oil and filter change for £150... i think youhave to have it done at the same time as a service though but still reckon its a good deal.
