service

Hiya I stupidly managed to miss my 2nd year service for my ion. The 3rd and of course the MOT is now due. The dealer I bought it from say I need all the things I missed from the 2nd service doing and have quoted me £360. Including a compulsory battery check, although I have no problems with my...

my 2014 zoe has full service history for every year, my service is due now and the sign in the dashboard doesn't go away. Almost 5 years old and 38k miles. Does it really need the “ Service “ or is it a waste of money and just to look good on paper when im selling it. I cant see what needs...

In the midst of email and phone call ping pong with VW GB. When is a service not a service? When it's an inspection! According to VW GB only a certified EV authorised centre can do the inspection. Lift bonnet, look at cables, close bonnet, lift up on ramp, check lots and lots of stuff they...

I thought it would be worth getting a better idea of maintenance costs for the Zoe What repairs/replacements have you had done? (if in-warranty, do you know how much it would have cost to do out of warranty?) How much have you paid for servicing at each annual interval?

Hello people, I have a 14 month old Leaf on 36 month PCP from Wessex Garages. We've had some confusion over servicing. When we were being sold it, they guy said something about it only needing one service in the 36 month period (the second being due on the day it is returned, so not our...

At my service last summer with Nissan they gave me some warnings: - red warning for track rod ends - amber warning for lower arm bush I think they wanted around £500 to fix as I remember, not sure if this was to fix both issues. Anyway I have managed to source the parts online for the Track...

Hi all, I’m based in South Wales but was wondering what everyone’s paying for the second service nationally. Just need to make sure I’m not paying over the odds for it as mine needs the service done next month! Thanks in advance..

I gave some information on my thread My Turn - Service Steering Column Lock about Underwoods Colchester. I had been using them for services but when I had the Steering Lock error they told me they no longer repaired Amperas, just servicing. So I went to Bristol Street Motors Chingford wjho did...

Car is currently in for its 5th service at 4 years and 4 months old with 93k on the clock. Annual mileage has dropped so it is the anniversary of the last service. I have been told that all four discs are corroded and pitted. The fronts are the originals but the rears were replaced for it's...

I'm considering buying an Ampera to replace my Zoe, but my budget is £10k. That rules out the vast majority of cars, and leaves me with a choice of four currently available: VAUXHALL AMPERA POSITIV 2012 ELECTRIC/RANGE EXTENDER PHEV, FSH, MOT, VGC | eBay Vauxhall Ampera 1.4 i VVT 16v Electron...

Hi, I'm interested in hearing from BMW i3 REX drivers about their first service. I had my first service (66 plate at 12,600 miles) yesterday for £399 (originally slightly more but I asked for some discount) which included: - Break flood change - Oil change, pollen filter... - Vehicle check (I...

Bought my car from Toomey Vauxhall, not happy about after sales but thats another story. They are not an Ampera Service Centre. The car has always been serviced at Underwoods in Colchester for Toomey. My car is due for a 4 year service in July this year, it will be the first time its been...

So, I had a sudden and catastrophic break in my car charging plug (socket? port?). I took a photo of the broken part, emailed Tesla service Gatwick and let them know. They called the new service centre in Milton Keynes, who called me, and offered to swap out the car immediately for a fix. I...

Hi. I am very interested in the env200 I think k it could suit my business needs well. But I have a few questions that I have not found out a clear answer for or am a bit confused by. 1)load length It is listed at 2040cm. Is this the very furthest point for the brochure, or I can stick a 2m...

My ZOE has just had its 3rd service and MOT at just under 18,000 miles. The check-sheet shows that they've checked the engine oil and exhaust again, so that's put my mind at ease! The 12V battery was replaced. This was part of the free service (4 year package). I've heard that some dealers have...

My Outlander is due a service in September, so I rang Mitsubishi for a booking date and price, only to find that the previous owner had purchased a 3 Year service plan, and I had 2 services left....bonus However as this is my first PHEV, I am not sure what is covered by the service, does anyone...

Having a look around the jobs section on the Tesla website I noticed a fair few jobs for staff listed as Milton Keynes, however based in Birmingham. I'm presuming this is before the opening of a store or service centre there. Service Manager - Milton Keynes | Tesla Motors | Tesla UK

Apologies if this already covered here. I'm 3 months and 7000 miles in to GTE ownership and the display is saying I need an oil change in 2000 miles. Can any vw dealer service the car or are there special EV dealers? Based in the North West so can use any dealer in the area. Can anyone recommend...

While I'm waiting for my Model S to be delivered, I'm looking at the optional Pre-paid service plan and thinking, "£1800 sounds like a lot". One of the advantages of this car is meant to be that it's super reliable because the moving part count is so low, and there's no oil or filters to...
