Hi All,

Could I please ask where the best place with cost effectiveness in mind is to service an SQ8 diesel and how much it should ideally cost.

 

I'm a prospective new owner based in WY (happy to travel sensibly), not yet taken ownership, would like some help and pointers please.

 

I'd really appreciate your help.

 

Vbw,

Many of us here recommend independent VAG specialists rather than Audi dealers. They generally are more helpful and approachable than the corporate Audi dealers, and are frequently cheaper into the bargain. An internet search will show those near to you.

Hi Cliff,

 

Thanks for this, I've contacted a handful of independents, ones got a really solid reputation and a very nice guy by all accounts, but he charges pretty much the same as what the main Audi dealer does, so just doesn't make sense.

On the other end of the scale is a guy that can't be bothered to even ring you back with a quote, despite calling him twice, so don't want to take it there, I can't imagine what he'd be like to deal with if there's a problem!

Quote from main dealer is £344 and I think £548 (don't quote me, got a load of numbers in my head!) I was under the assumption an independent would be a lot cheaper?

So still need to find a reputable one and determine what sensible costs should be.

Cheers,

Steve 

 

 

AA Motors in Hull are very good. I've travelled an hour each way for our VW/Audi/Skoda cars, but my A8 is under extended warranty so will stick with Audi while I have it. AA also update the digital service record for Skoda, so I presume they can for Audi.

is there anywhere closer to bradford/leeds?

I can vouch for Chris Umpleby he's VERY good but not cheap.

Moorfield in Yeadon, but never used them?

 

Anyone with a tdi SQ8?
