Im about to take delivery of a new A3 2.0tdi 170 sline sportback and I'm undecided on the fixed maintenance package.
On 25k pa, over 3 years, monthly payments quoted as
Service £24.73
Ser/Main £44.82
Ser/Main/Tyres £86.61
Ive got a Mk5 Golf 1.9tdi at the moment and over three years 78k miles the following work has been done
4 AVS services and 1 brake fluid
Front brake pads twice and discs once
Rear brake pads and discs once
Cheapest dealership quotes at the following but its a bit of a drive, would mean time off work so consequently a pain in the old buttocks
1st AVS £210
2nd AVS £250
Brake fluid £77
Front pads £120
Front Discs/Pads £240
Rear Discs/Pads £171
If I ignore the tyre option and working on what Ive had done to my golf I would pay £1528 but if I took the Serv/Main option I would pay £1613.52.
I drive mainly on motorways with the odd thrash through the beautiful welsh hills. So can anyone tell me if the work Ive estimated that will need doing is correct or will it need more or less maintenance or indeed have I missed anything, the only thing I could think of is bulbs or wipers. I'm assumin cambelt is at 80k.
Maybe I should just take the service option I wonder if this includes the brake fluid change.
Thanks
