Second service
« on: March 08, 2010, 04:19:59 pm »
Car is 57,  GTI Edtion 30.
Im being quoted £240 for second service and brake fluid change. This is at main dealers in Perth btw.
Is that cheap, expensive or ok?  :confused:

I think I paid a little less than that but not by much. It was the second (20k) service on T&D.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

they didnt on the first service,for the second service though they asked for a quote in writing, i said it seemed a bit silly as what dealer would do a written quote !, so they did it without the letter, that said i did email skoda and they did send me a written quote  :happy2:

Sound about right, maybe £190 for the service and £50 for the brake fluid change, only guessin but i would expect camerons to be around £85hr, got my audi done through skoda for £70hr.

Make sure the buggers clean your engine cover of any oil :fighting:  And they knocked my gti badge off the seat adjuster on my drivers seat :fighting:

I paid about £145, less 25% discount (about £120) for my last service at VW Crow Road Arnolds Clark.

They currently have a 20% discount voucher for manufacturer servicing on their website... look it up :afro:

FYI, after getting the 'recommended work' advisory, an Audi Indy garage did my brake fluid change using OEM fluid for £35 + VAT.

Total about £160...?  :afro:
