ID.4 Servicing

2571 Views 29 Replies 10 Participants Last post by  Warrior
Now that we're coming up on two years since the first UK ID.4s were delivered, it is time to look at scheduling that first batch (mine included) for servicing... Has anyone scheduled theirs yet? Are you using main dealers, or HEVRA garages? Any idea on base costs? I've emailed Cleevely's mobile service as they do my Zoe every summer, not sure if they service the ID cars, but we'll see.

Cleeverly will do the ID.4 - only small caveat they said "I will add the ID range pollen filters are stupidly expensive and large, and dependant on costs at the time there may be a small charge on top."
James has probably costed up the pollen filter since my last e-mail then (£12.50+VAT)
For a new ID.4 you can get "Includes: 1 x Inspection Service, 1 x Pollen filter and 1 x Brake fluid change (if required)" for £239.
My gosh I hope we don't need the brake fluid changed after only two years!
I know the Audi A4 brake fluid schedule is once every 2 years, so it's likely to be similar.
£239 is only as an add-on when you buy the vehicle.

Interestingly it says "A Volkswagen ID Service Plan covers the vehicle first service covering you for 2 years, with an option to pay upfront or spread over 24 monthly payments." where you seem to have it over 12 monthly payments.
This is what the VW website says about the £239 servicing option.

"A Volkswagen ID Service Plan covers the vehicle first service covering you for 2 years, with an option to pay upfront or spread over 24 monthly payments.

Includes: 1 x Inspection Service, 1 x Pollen filter and 1 x Brake fluid change (if required) All parts are fitted by trained technicians, are genuine and come with 2 years parts and labour warranty.

This option will be excluded from your finance calculation and must be paid for separately. Price shown is only valid at point of order."

Although indeed I was told two services from my dealer, so if this is just one service then it's actually considerably more expensive.
Well it is two years, because the ID.4 only needs to be serviced every two years... 😅 But yeah, I'm quite happy paying Cleevely £177 to come to my house and do it for me. I guess it'll be more than that if I need the brake fluid change, but I can't imagine I will after only two years... Plus, after they finish the ID.4 they'll do the Zoe sitting next to it - I'm very happy paying £339 to get both cars taken care of for another year (two more years in the ID.4's case!)
I don't know why - but I read it as two services, and it looks like the MOT has been dropped.
Yeah, I think I'll get Cleevely out in 26 months or whenever it is I need the service. I might pay about the same but I'll save that in actually having somebody who knows what they're doing with EVs.

The VW website accessories have now changed to state this;

Service Plan
Price £239
A Volkswagen Service Plan covers the first two consecutive services. This option will be excluded from your finance calculation and must be paid for separately.

But when you click "More Info" it says

"A Volkswagen ID Service Plan covers the vehicle first service covering you for 2 years, with an option to pay upfront or spread over 24 monthly payments.
Includes: 1 x Inspection Service, 1 x Pollen filter and 1 x Brake fluid change (if required) All parts are fitted by trained technicians, are genuine and come with 2 years parts and labour warranty.

Which contradicts itself.
