Magnet Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Hello Sean, Welcome to the forum. I notice you have booked the car in for service and obviously have accepted their estimated cost, so I just wonder if it’s a little late to be seeking comments/advice on whether that costing is reasonable - or not. Of course, you could cancel or postpone the arrangement, while you consider alternative avenues. Personally, I tend to seek alternative quotations before committing, and would consider trusted independent specialists as another option. The car is now 5 years old, and it could be some ‘servicing’ parts may require changing. Also, to me, I would need to know exactly what has been quoted for - e.g. will the air filter, and particularly the pollen filter be changed within this price? - since without this knowledge, you are likely to be exposing your wallet to the inclement elements. Hopefully, someone else will respond and offer you a better judgement on the estimate you have, but it should be appreciated that rates are likely to vary from region to region. Kind regards, Gareth.

DELETE ME Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Hi Sean Here's a link to the Lookers Audi service prices for S model cars to give something to compare against: https://www.lookers.co.uk/audi/servicing-and-parts/servicing-prices/s-models They quote a major service for an S6 as £649, but for an older car the prices may vary. I'm not associated to Lookers Audi in any way - apart from recently buying a used car from them so already knew about their servicing prices page. Definitely worth getting detailed quotes from a few different sources before committing. Regards, David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnet Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Sound and helpful advice David, but unfortunately the original poster hasn’t revisited the forum since Saturday - the same day as he joined! Kind regards, Gareth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
