In the region of £700 my second service they wanted £400 got in down £350 ....
Hi mate, as an idea Cheshire Oaks wanted £421 for my second service! Took it to Martin at Unit20 near Neston £198 for exactly the same thing. He also gives you a paper copy of the service record showing the vin, what service was done, when and the milage so that you can show the next buyer....he also updates it online.My s3 is coming upto 3 years old in January, so will need a service and a mot,any ideas on price at the main dealers for my 3rd year service
Can take it elsewhere. Mines on PCP, Audi will likely give you less on hand in as not FASH, however as long as genuine parts etc are used, you'll be absolutely fine for warranty and PCP.Just spoke with cheshire oaks audi,service and mot £600 but they said,we dont clean the haldex filter!!!!!!
My cars on pcp still so wondering if i still have to let them do this or do i take it elsewere
May give them a call them a call then,gotta get intouch with audi for a quote but reckon wit will be to high,do unit20 also do mot as it will need that aswell,how are audi on serviceing elsewere whilst your car is on pcp as im still on that for another year yet
Try Martin mate, he can do the MOT as well....if you want fire me a pm with your details, reg and miles and I'll ask him on wednesday, he's in Japan at the moment for the rugby tomorrowJust spoke with cheshire oaks audi,service and mot £600 but they said,we dont clean the haldex filter!!!!!!

£700 for your second service? Really? What did you have done for that? That's ridiculous.
I booked in a few weeks back for the service, he asked if I needed a car, I said I'd bring it in early and wait, just over an hour later I was on my way out all doneI sent them a message earlier pal,they said they will get back to me on monday,lets see what the difference is,but i told them i eould need courtesy car and they said they are first come first served ,but i would have to make sure i got one as not hanging around all day lol

Yeah that's true, if you want and if you haven't heard back from him on Monday, let me know and I'll ask him on Wednesday. Like I say he's in Japan over the weekend, so he may be behind with quotes etc. I wouldn't leave my car with anyone I didn't trust, but I would trust these guys! Apparently they are big and have a excellent name on the RS forums as well!Mine may take a bit longer as will be sorting the mot aswell
Yeah but what can you do?!?! The joys of owning a carTakes an hour and it still costs a fortune!

Yeah does seem a bit daft, it's like having a bath and then putting dirty underwear back on When I was chatting with him the other day he did say that they do a lot of filter/liquid changes as standard that Audi don't do on their services! So it will be interesting to see what he saysCant believe audi said they dont clean out thehaldex filtermseem aa waste of time doing other haldex work if the filters still gonna be full of ****
I sent him a FB message, told him you'd contacted them and told him about Audi not doing the filter clean, this is his answer:Cant believe audi said they dont clean out thehaldex filtermseem aa waste of time doing other haldex work if the filters still gonna be full of ****
My car is on a annual service plan just checked and it is a inspection service due in 80 days . Brake fluid change and air con /service re gas is definitely due to . My car as never had a Haldex service and its now on 24k going to look at getting this done at a specialist as I want the filter cleaning .Depending on whether you run it on annual or long-life servicing, it’ll be due the MoT plus an oil change (+/- inspection) as the basic service. You will also probably be due brake fluid and Haldex oil.
A respected VAG independent would charge ~£350 if you have all that done. Trade prices for a car like an S3 aren’t really influenced by dealer history, so I prefer using a specialist where I know jobs like Haldex oil are done properly.
