Major service at main dealer..
Posted: Sun May 01, 2011 12:22 pm
Hi all,
I recently booked my car in for a major service (40k miles) at main dealers. The rep quoted £514.00 over the phone and out of interest, I asked what work would be carried out. She said this would include oil and filter change "including the oil", air filter change, pollen filter change, and bodywork inspection, screenwash refill. The dealer PC screen had apparantly frozen up so the lady was going by memory.
This doesn't sound much work for the price and I'm just wondering if there are any other consumables?
Otherwise I'm considering getting a quote from a local specialist as I begrudge paying for the privilege of my car being tinkered with in a glitzy garage..
