I also got a certain things done at 25,000 kms
front Brake pads - 2831 (no change in price)
coolant change - 857 (I think 2 litres)
fuse box - 596 (new vehicles have this kit as a spare, we didn't have it:( )
air filter - 596 (old price)
fuel filter - 400+change (new price)

Clearly, some of the parts are still charged at the old price. It seems the price reduction happened very recently and not all the parts with the dealer are new. It will take some time for the price reduction show effect.

What is Engine Lackering? Why is it done.

You have been charged with 3.5 ltr. Normally they charge for 4 ltrs. Did you raise any objection?

How much was the total milaege done between the two services?

I really wonder why Skoda has not come up with extended warranty when there are so many takers lined for this! Surprised

Engine Lackering- coating under hood on all visible components which will prevent dust from settling on it , just like car wax on exterior.may last 6 months , (www.orangecare.in)

Engine Oil - Issue every time , dont know what grade oil is filled and whats the quantity and how they charge.

2nd service @ 8800 Kms , first service was @ 2700 Kms.

I will be fixing the sound absorber / engine cover soon in a weeks time

Hi Guys,

Got my second service done. Warranty is also expired now.

The First service was done at 7000 kms while the second at 10500 kms. The running was quite low but still got it serviced as it was already due by time factor and some niggling issues could have been solved under warranty.

I was again charged with 4.2 lts of engine oil and upon my objection they got it chabged to 3.8 ltrs.
Total bill amount was Rs. 6222/-

I am glad that you could use the information provided by our dear members. Surely saved you atleast 500/- bucks.

I can't believe my eyes - is it really Rs 96/- for oil filter or a digit is missing. Finally something for less than a 100 buck Smile.

There is no mention of air and fuel filter. They might have skipped the fuel filter due to low running of your car. Air filter also has a good life but I feel it should have been replaced here. Mere cleaning may not do in our dusty conditions.

Last time they poured 4 liters in my car. The oil is still above the max level. I ll have to make a note of this in the next service.

Robin,

How much has been your total expense till date for the car services?

Let us evaluate the cost comparing to other diesel cars in the same category.
