mulkbear Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 [ QUOTE ] Watch out they don't spill the spare oil in your boot!! [/ QUOTE ] Why put the spare oil in the boot ? There should be no spare oil Do you know if your car is on "long life servicing" or "time/ distance" ? Ask for some discount, if they don't give you some throw a tantrum like a 5 year old kid until they do give you some discount, they should give you around 15% off the labour and 10% off parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfgirl Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 I paid around £229 for my 20k service. With regards to the oil..... I asked them to change it over from fixed to variable servicing, which they did. They gave me a bottle of top-up oil, which turned out to be standard oil and not longlife!

helfinger Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 i would also recomend you get the haldex oil changed and a new filter.....vw say at 40,000 miles which is not advisable as my m8 who works for vw racing said for me to do mine at 20K if you drive your r hard......

[/ QUOTE ] Your mate is right But i would say get it done at 30k 0r 3 year so you pay for a lube service and haldex oil changed to spead the cost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
