Hi all,
My S3 is 400 miles off needing it's next service, so I've been quoted 180 quid for a normal service, and 230 for a long life. This is from two independant VAG specialists, so after asking what they do for the servicing, I was surprised to hear they simply do an oil and filter change, check for faults and then reset the service counter!
The parts can't cost much more than 60, so I can't see how they can justify those prices. I would do it myself (as I have always done) but I can't due to the service counter needing to be reset.
Anyway, I thought I would give Audi Oxford a shout and they quoted 99 quid for oil/filter change plus health check and counter reset. They also don't charge extra for using long life oil. I've therefore booked it in with them as I'm well impressed with this price, but is there anything I should be wary of as it seems too good to be true.
I also need my aircon regassing, but they wanted 80+ vat......makes no sence to me!
