Service Costs

I have been to 3 garages today checking on service costs and they range from £313.24 to £269.54. This is for the 24000 mile one. It is a 1.9 JTD and has air con as well as this effects the price so they tell me.
Could you just tell me whether this is a fair price to pay for this service.

any info would be appreciated,
Thanks

£270.00 sounds ok for 24k on a JTD, and aircon adds 0.4 to the labour time- this is for fitting a pollen filter.

Different dealers charge differently as there 'Dealer' running costs differ from dealer to dealer.

Make sure the brake fluid change is inclusive and not charged as an extra.

Re: Service Costs

Thanks for that - she did say it was a pretty inclusive service, so will mention that to them when I go.

Re: Service Costs

Just been through this for my 12k JTD service. I did a thread on it but basically prices ranged form £160 (GMD Durham) to £263 (Autoworld Sheffield).
Finally I took it to Wakefield Diesel Centre. They did it for £120 and used genuine Fiat parts.

Re: Service Costs

I'm pretty sure I paid £250 for my 24k service including new front brake pads (too lazy to change them myself ).

Re: Service Costs

I paid £ 260.00 at Fiat Slough.
They have told me it is gone up to £360 from now on.
This is the 2nd year service or 24K for a 1.8.

Very expensive indeed.

Re: Service Costs

I've been quoted "around £300" for a 36K service on my 1.8 at JCS Kegworth. Not sure what it includes exactly but will check it out beforehand (in 2.5K miles). I'll miss not using Reg Vardy Leicester as you get your engine cover & battery box covers broken there absolutley free of charge and they didn't reset the service indicator! How I love good customer service!

Just dug out my invoice, Stu. I paid £290 for my 36k service at Fiat-Worcester about a month ago, so that sounds about right . I had a free courtesy car also (as this service centre is about 30 miles away from my home...).

Re: Service Costs

Reading Fiat quoted me £350 for the 36k service on my 1.2 gotta be having a laugh really. Gonna have to have a proper shop around when it comes to its next service.
