I recently had my 2nd service which can be done at up to 24,000 miles but I'd only done 13,000 so I was told I could have the low mileage service as things like the brakes probably wouldn't need doing.
This would have cost £130, which seemed reasonable to me.
When I picked the car up I was told that it needed the full 24,000 mile service and the bill was £220 .
Would the front brakes really have needed doing at 13,000 miles? especially as I'm really light on the brakes when I drive.
Also, could I have insisted on a low mileage service when I booked the car in? It had only gone 1000 miles over the 1st service limit.
It does say in the handbook that you can opt for a low mileage service if you're a long way from the maximum recommended mileage.
