quicksilver 0 Posted April 1, 2005 That price is about right. I had mine done last year and although its pricey they were really thorough and managed to pick up on quite a few things that I wasn't aware of and quotations to rectfy them. Even greased all the hinges!! So I've now got a complete list of anything that needs work or may need work in the near future together with prices so I can make a fair comparision when getting quotes from other garages to do the work.

corradostorm 0 Posted April 11, 2005 Just got the car back. Tried to charge £274 for the service but got them back down to £240. Spark plugs are £50+VAT! Just need to work thorough the list of 'suggested replacements', bushes etc..., nothing out of the ordinary thankfully. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 11, 2005 Spark plugs are £50+VAT! That's because VW only sell the platinums for the VR6 now....£8 each. I bet they're only platinum coated on the centre electrode aswell, and not proper full platinums. Oh well.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 11, 2005 I had 80k service 3 years ago (now at 110k and full dealer service history but as from this weekend no more....well not with that dealer anyway....) my total back then was £216 with spark plugs being £85 Just checked on dealer labour costs as part of this weekends fiasco and was told £69.75 +VAT.
