Golf MK5 Servicing Costs?

[nr123]

hi all, well my golf mk5 needs to be serviced and ive read on piston heads that its around the £150-200 mark. But VW quoted me a price of £289!!

The cost depends on what service regime, longlife or time/distance, and what service it is.

Prices do seem to vary a bit from dealer so phone around to get the best price and lso check out Audi, Seat and Skoda dealers.

Can audi etc service my car? the cars done 42600 miles, not been serviced for 2 years though and the service indicator is flashing

They are all from the same VAG stable anduse the same parts.

Another option is a local VW independent

I'd be looking at an Andy too - a £150 service will just be an annual with the cheaper oil. Nearer to 250-280 is about right for a longlife.

Just ring around main dealers - they all quote differently.

Seat Altea service lacally was £300. Had it done whilst holidaying in Devon for £160 - both main dealer.
