Hi,iam a little stuck on my service schedule. I purchased my car back in march (mk2 octy tdi vrs,57plate) with a little over 4000 miles on it. They told me at the time it would be given a once over before i picked it up including a service. Given the fact i had the car from Whitedove in Cardiff i really dont trust they did a service as there is no stamp in the book. Having brought the car on their HP do i need to take it back to them? or can i use my normal gararge that does my leon? Also as the car now has just over 6000 miles on it what should the service intail? has it gone through the running in stage yet? would this intail anything else?. Sorry for all the questions but i really dont know what to do! haha. Any feed back/ advice would be very much appreciated,cheers.

Just make sure it's a VAT registered garage.

Also if you have anything in writing, then speak to their service dept (not sales) and ask for a copy of the service receipt. If they don't have it they didn't service it.

The mileage is low, but it's at 2 years old now, so assuming it's on variable servicing, then it's time for a full inspection service. On that basis I'd find a skoda dealer, negotiate the price a bit and get it all done there.

My reason for saying that is they can sort any warranty issues out for you that they find before the car gets to 3 years old.

HTH

Thanks cheeze,i think i will bite the bullet an let Whitedove do this first service then use the VAG specialist i use the rest of the time,that should,like you say sort any issues they find? sorted,cheers again.
