I want to service my own V5 but have a few questions about it. First of all it's the 150bhp 10 valve version (with the leads on the engine cover). These might sound like silly questions but i want to make sure i have absolutely everything i need before i start to service the car. I am used to...

As I am intending servicing my Cupra over Christmas I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on what's best - a garage/dealer doing it or doing it myself? It will only be a basic service (plugs, oil, filters etc.) As I see it there a few pros and cons of each. Doing it myself is obviously...

I recently bought a Leon 02 1.8T 20v and am giving it a service. In the service information it recommends checking for faults with the diagnostic tool. As far as I can tell the car is fine and I have no faults shown on my dashboard. Is it still worth having a diagnostic done. I have seen...

The first annual service is due on my girlfriends Ibiza 1.4 DAB at the end of the month. Can anyone tell me how much this is going to cost? The car was bought from Jennings in Middlesbrough and will most likely be going back there for the service unless someone can recommend somewhere else.

Had my Altea XL in for its 10k service. When collected the dealer advised they had upgraded / updated the ECU due to a known issue with hesitancy. I said I hadn't encountered this but quite happy for the car to be kept "up to date" as it were with upgrades. Is there anywhere , either on here...

Just had a bit of a shock, just phoned my local Seat dealer for my 20k service just to be told it would come to £350 :blink: What the hell is that all about, even my Toyota Celica on a major service was a lot less than that!!!! Tell me this dealer is off his head, surely it doesn't cost £350...

Hello all, car is out of warranty so will be servicing it myself like my other previous cars. Few questions: There is a sub frams or something? So can't get to the drain plug? I saw a photo somewhere on here of an oil pumper, where can I get one from? How easy is it to drain and fill the...

When I got recovered by the AA the other week due to CV joint failure I was have a chat with the AA man who used to work for VW as a techie and owned a Touran 2.0tdi 140. Anyway I mentioned that I thought it was a con that VW engines can go 20k for an oil service where as Seat only 10k. The guy...

I know this has been covered so many times before but I still can't get my head around it! My FR TFSI is approaching its first service, my local dealer Amethyst has quoted £200 and the next nearest, Droitwich, has quoted £150. I can't understand why there is a £50 difference especially...

Car's coming up for it's 50k service and I'm thinking about taking it to an independent instead. A very good friend of mine owns his own garage and I know he'll take so much better care of the car than my local dealer, who've already caused me grief before. Up until now it has a full Seat...
