Servicing 3 different prices for the same service

jplant1981 · 25th November 2011, 19:47

Today i phoned 3 main dealers for a price for the 5th service on my 2.2 ex. Strastone Leeds £165, Stratsone Doncaster £175 and Gilders Sheffield £195. Are there any additional items they do and charge extra for?

All Dealerships can set their own price for a service, within reason. If you haven't done the miles, but the time - you can have a reduced service to save dosh and still get the book stamped.

i have just done that with the clutch and flywheel. Cox motor parts quoted 820 i managed to get gilders in sheffield down to 822.79, others on here have paid in excess of 1k and HUK gave me £250 towards the cost as a good will gesture
