Servicing/oil Qs
QD MBE:
I had my ED30 serviced yesterday. Just over £100, and the nice touch was i got a free bottle of Mobil 1 to top up, although i hope i don't need it!
i have gone to the 1year/10K regime, although I strive to change the oil after 5k.

ive just sat at the stealers, best part of 3 hours while ours got its first serv (longlife)
its had oil (dropped from sump not sucked out) oil filter, pollen filter (which i didnt think was done at this one) brake fluid change.
also had the auto locking programed (over 10mph)
serv £185
fluid £49
lock £39
they washed and hoovered it, when i checked in the boot i found 1x litre oil (shell helix) and 1x litre screen wash (bonus)
they also swapped all 4 centre wheel VW logos (white worm) then did a recall for fuel pressure sensor (24M5) so fitted new one
dont know why
all in all worth the wait

But they topped up the oil for free!
VW Solihull FTW!

So a happy customer then? Makes a nice change! There's seems to be a trend then with them giving oil away? About bloody time!! :happy2:

Was this £39 for a new lock? Or £39 to activate anti hijack auto-locking? Seems a bit steep to me. It takes them minutes with the Vag-com, and they would have used vag-com on the car during the service.
Seems a touch necky! :confused:
