Hi all, the time has come when I need to get my car serviced.

I have been quoted from a local friends garage £300 for..

-general service

-oil change

-tracking

-cambelt

-breaks bleeding

Price includes the labour and parts.

I want to take it to a garage so I can get the service light turned of and a stamp in the book.

However would this price be cheaper if I did something's myself? Like an oil change is this difficult?

Thanks Jay

That isn't that bad. Parts along with cambelt kit if it's all genuine will cost around £200 and there's still oil and other consumables too

IMO that is too cheap, a cambelt change alone is normally around £300 (using genuine parts)

Brakes are not normally bled on a service, but it is recommended that the brake fluid is changed every 2 years (this would obviously require them being bled.

Missing a waterpump might want to change that

Mates rates

So also need to change the water pump and the fuel and pollen filter? Is this something that I can do or does it have to be done in te service?

If you have to ask the question I have to reply you can do the pollen filter!
