PeterE Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Hi All, just had a couple of prices back for service on a 2010 2.5 cvt. the car is on 38000 miles but will be 4 years old next month, so prices are thus- 48k 4year service £382.00 or smaller anal type £249. had a price of well over £500, from the garage that sold the car new. I'm thinking I should just service by mileage not by age, any thoughts? cheers Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david1972 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Mine goes in annually as a minimum, regardless of mileage covered - would put it in more often if I covered more than 12k a year though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoozyDave Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 do services on age, unless mileage is reached first fluids deteriorate with age and need replacing to continue performing like they should and giving full protection. my cam belt is 60k miles or 5 years. I've just had it done because its 10 years old. I only do 3k miles a year, should I swap it again in 5 years or will my new cam belt be ok for 20 years????

BoozyDave Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 good point Tidgy, some garages will quote a lower price to look cheaper, but they don't always do everything that the more expensive garage would have done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
