jay5041 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Just had a full service done on the car including all fluids and new platinum plugs. Also needed timing belt doing an 2 front shocks replacing. Had a nice final bill of 800 quid [sHOCK][/sHOCK] Bit more pricey than my old vectra! Stupid question but im guessing the timing belt is the cambelt??

jackso11 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 with shocks and a cambelt change that sounds about right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pezzler Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Any idea what shocks they put on the car? If you break it down, you didnt do too bad with your £800 bill - shocks £70 each for cheapies, KTB's etc - cambelt about £200 fitted - spark plugs about £60 - engine oil and filter about £60 - if its an autobox about £35 for a "short change" - diff fluid about £35 for decent stuff - toyota coolant is about £40 Not too bad at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 I'd say that is pretty darn good if you are including 2 front shocks & cambelt change! Plus the full service on the car inc fluids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest argy911 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Did you check if you got the sevice book stamped .You'll need this when its time to sell the car ,the new buyer might ask for a sevice history . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackso11 Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I never get the book stamped. I did buy a book for my last car, a toyota supra service book.....but then I thought it just highlights the fact that you have no idea how the car was serviced before you owned it so never used it.
