So my XV is going for MOT and its 5th service at the weekend.

Its going to a legit Subaru dealer.

What sort of prices would you guys be expecting?

How big is a 5th service ?

If it's all fluids & belts I would expect much change from a grand

Mine is going in for its 60k service which is also its fifth, its a diesel version and it's costing me £247 all in, it's not that expensive to be fair, cheaper than my Honda Civic was. And that is at a Subaru dealer.

2010 diesel Impreza booked in with Subaru dealer tomorrow (15th), 7th service, 61k miles. £280 all in with MOT @ £27

Had my 60K a while ago, was about £300 incl VAT (gulp...). 

What do you all think about dealer vs non-dealer services anyway? I think not all mechanics are familiar with the boxer for maintenance.

If it's out of manufactures warranty then go for it find a speacilist subaru place and you'll save a fortune,

My local main subaru dealer wanted circa 1300 quid for a cam belt change and major service, my local speacilist did it for half that, it's a 70 mile round trip for me but well worth it

Our XV is in for a service today (4th year) they are wanting £510! (AF Noble - Penicuick)

As its there or Ian Grieves in Falkirk (whom I don't think did a wonderful job last time) I've bit the bullet and told them to go ahead with it.

Will report back what they do.

Yikes!

Just had a call to say that the front Brakes were getting thin and that they would need to do discs and pads.

Wanted £345 to do them, and that was a reduced rate as the brakes were already in bits :ohmy:

£87.36 per disc
£124.00 for Front Pads
£45 fitting (Half an hour as brakes were apart for the service apparently)

Seems a bit steep for pads??

That's what I thought. So told them to put it back together and I would do it myself.

Tidgy, your right, way cheaper to go through ECP or the likes.
Part of where I work does truck maintenance, so I managed to get pads disks and a fitting kit for under £100 through a local motor factors

I'll fit them when they start to grind.
