My A4 2.5TDI Quattro is due for a service, I called three dealers to compare prices, and I couldnt believe what I was told, and can anyone tell me if the following is [censored] or what;
1st dealer: Audi Preston,
The service dept told me that the cost of a 30k service is £200 inc parts / labour.
the work involved is to change the oil and oil filter only and report any 'faults'
they do NOT change the air, fuel or pollen filters until 60,000 miles (cannot beleive that) and they dont top up your water levels.
2nd dealer: Links Macclesfield,
The service dept told me that the cost of a 30k service is £250 inc parts / labour.
the work involved is to change the oil, replace oil, air, fuel & pollen filters, change the diff oil (what?, at 30k?) change the spark plugs (what? reminded him it was a diesel) and some other swinging shackle thingy.
3rd dealer: Lancaster Audi (Manchester)
never even bothered to return my call.
Can someone tell me what i should get for a 30k service and who they think is honest, I changed from Ford to get away from snide dealers but am a bit concerned that Audi dealerships are not much better.
