matt buz 0 Posted February 14, 2004 Hey Just had my car fully serviced and my new exhaust fitted for a grand total of £220 Is this a good price? He is a VW approved and has a VW stamp and is a german performance specialist. The parts needed where engine oil flushing oil oil filter plugs fuel filter and seals distributer cap & rotor arm brake fluid exhaust sealant If it is a good price then it maybe useful info for Leeds/ Bradford based Corrado owners and I could post his details up. Later Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Later if he's VW-approved then he'll be a VW-dealer :wink: .....AFAIK VW only approve VW dealers for servicing/mech.repairs etc they won't "approve" any other garage.........so in other words his "VW" stamp isn't really "aunthentic" as such.....but if he does a good job cheaply then its not a problem......it just means that you don't have any recourse to "complain" to VW if there is any "issues" with mechanical repairs/servicing probs .........tho the only other way he might be VW approved is if he also has a bodyshop and is VW approved for body repairs etc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matt buz 0 Posted February 15, 2004 yeah it was including parts Thought it was quite reasonable and it was what i budgeted for. If anyone in the Leeds area wants to know then I can forward the address. Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Majik 0 Posted February 15, 2004 i'd expect to pay up to £100 for that service from a non specialist garage, vw parts are ten a penny from GSF or ECP. Which exhaust was replaced and what quality is the replacement? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
