My VW dealership is tops. They fully valeted the car to perfection. Waxed the Monza Shadows, shone the pipes, polished the paintwork, spruced the inside, etc., etc. Has a new car smell and looks showroom fresh. All FOC!!  :shocked:

I'd go back and ask them if they would be able to move on the price if you have the work done there.

If not, price it up at an independent VW specialist - will be cheaper as the labour will be a big part of it.

Whereabouts are you based - somebody may know of a local specialist to you.

While we are on the subject of AC, I was strongly advised by my dealer to go for the additional AC service during the 2nd service, which is an additional £70-odd as not part of the £250 service plan deal. Not sure what the results would be if I didn't take it up, as mine is fast approaching it 2nd service, but I think I'll go for it just to be safe.
Just a heads up guys

Wouldn't bother unless the aircon is not working properly or its getting a bit smelly.

All they do is recharge and disinfect.

The air con in my mk4 was good for 5 years before it needed servicing.

Mine gets a little smelly (for approx 10 secs) after switching AC back off to fan. Do the pipes need a clean, like my local pub?
