Just had car in for the service at cost of £400 !
Checked the labour rates against last years invoice and guess what, an increase of £41 per hour.
That's who I used Martin is a good guy and only charged me £220 using genuine Audi parts...the sports car specialist that I sold the car to was more than happy that I'd used him..Go to Unit 20 if your near Liverpool.
wow £180 extra!!!Just had car in for the service at cost of £400 !
Merc and bmw is no better. Just got a quote for £700 for a major service on a 4 year old car.Audi dealer pricing is a total joke and one of the reasons I am moving away from Audi.
It was a bit late to ask this question when your car was already booked in for the following morning.I am due my second years service on the S3.
Oil / Filter.
Pollen Filter.
Inspection Service.
Anyone know the going rate for the work from dealerships in the North East ?
WOW pleased your putting it politely.It was a bit late to ask this question when your car was already booked in for the following morning.
You seemed surprised at the £400 they charged you, but you should have known this figure in advance.
I agree it was far too much....and that's putting it politely.
Getting silly isn't it, my A5 is due its 2nd service at the end of October, I'm only on 5,800 mile now! I just looked at my Digital Service Schedule to see what I was on last year:Merc and bmw is no better. Just got a quote for £700 for a major service on a 4 year old car.
I think you misunderstand his comment, I don't things he's having a pop at you personally, I think he means the cost of the servicing in general.WOW pleased your putting it politely.
As above I wasn't having a go at you...just saying what I see.WOW pleased your putting it politely.
And you pay what for your servicing ??
My oil / filter last August at main dealer came to £207 for which the labour rate was invoiced at £82.10.As above I wasn't having a go at you...just saying what I see.
Main dealer servicing costs are atrocious....and that's assuming you are actually getting everything you are paying for, but lets not go there.
I have only had one service to date on my S3 - it was the very first annual one so basically just an oil and filter change. Cost at my Audi main dealer for this service in June of this year was £174.
I am already dreading finding out the cost of what the combined oil change/inspection service is going to be next year.
