Hello guys hope you are all well,
Im interested in purchasing the following car listed in the title, I have found one (2012 model) and I am close to finalising the sale,
Although one thing struck me flicking through the service history:
The S-Tronic gearbox has only been serviced once at 38000 miles back in 2015. It may have been serviced again at a higher mileage but there is no proof of it, so I am just assuming it has had the one only. The current mileage is 147000. I did test drive the car and the gearbox was smooth and responsive in normal, dynamic and sports etc. I drove both smoothly and then gave it a bit of a thrashing, but the gearbox did well and shifts were still smooth. My question is should I be concerned about the lack of S-Tronic services? And also do you have any recommendations of any independant garages or specialists that do the S-Tronic service? Or should I just go straight to main dealer for the s-tronic oil and filter change?
Thanks in advance
