Thanks for that Nathan, my second nearest garage is about 25 miles away but might give them a ring to see what price they can offer.

Did think the rules had changed slightly on this in as much as you can have your car serviced anywhere and the warranty will remain valid. Remember reading it somewhere.... Cheers Dawsey |

Yes I think you are right, I have heard that too, just wasn't sure about quality and parts when I go to exchange for a new one at some point.. didn't want to put it to the test really..

As long as it's a vat registered garage and they use approved parts your warranty is valid. I use a local land rover specialist and save a small fortune. I'm reluctant to pay a main stealer over £100 pound an hour for an apprentice to do an oil change.

But a Land Rover specialist can't download all the new updates from Land Rover computers. Every main dealer when they service your car plug it into main frame and download all new updates! |

I'm sure these can be picked up whilst in for warranty work, which is probably more frequently than an anual service

I had a Toyota a few years back and was charged 150 quid for a main dealer minor service and the useless idiots forgot to put the oil filler cap back on, made a right mess of the engine bay.

Funny you say that Nik, what happened to me was on the first service of a brand new Land Crusier. SVR 2018 in Santorini Black. |

You'll find that independents can do this and a lot more that dealers can't. Porsche Cayenne S Diesel 66 Plate |
