Just brought my car in for an oil service. Had a couple of 'service due' notifications on the app, so priced it up and booked it in, less than £200 the cost. Sit down at the desk, they try to say its £478 !! The car is still under warranty and she's trying to add all sorts of filters. So I go back on the app, point out what is needed, and my quote is still less than half hers. Which I said I won't pay. They've never done this before, but this was just them trying to rip me off and they can **** right off. They'll take ages now too.
Down here a couple of years ago , Hendy bought the ŠKODA Dealerships . First thing they did was up the Advisory level on tyre depth by 1 MM . I asked the service person if anyone questioned this , and he said very quietly “ far more people just pay for new tyres , mostly older people “ he said it disgusted him and he had applied for a job outside the motor industry .
