2nd service

[Hampshire rubber burner]

My clubsport in for 2nd year service been told its due brake fluid change and ac regards at extortionate cost

Brake fluid possibly yes, A/C recharge? does it work ok? If so, forget it, dealer money maker.

[Beebopper]

Brake fluid yes, every 24 months on all Vag schedules from what I’ve seen, I’d have that done. Aircon I wouldn’t bother unless it’s not blowing cold. It’s a dealer money maker! Next year at third year, you’ll also need the diff oil change, but again they will try to push the aircon service

Both optional money makers neither affect warranty in any way.

For ref we got a 2015 polo blue GT we have owned from new FVSH and been under VW extended warranty every year from new. Do 85k now.

Never had aircon service at vw but done elsewhere 2 times since new.

Just had aircon pump fail and was changed under vw warranty no questions asked ref aircon service, as they are advisory not compulsory.

Brake fluid is same advisory we have had that twice since new.

Will not affect warranty for anything either if you don't have it done.

Thats not just me saying this my mate works at VW in service.

Yes I've come to dread taking my car to the dealer because they lie and pressure you to pay for all sorts of unneeded crap.

If I didn't have the all in service and warranty package I'd never darken their door because it just feels like a con every time.
