Hi guys, I know its probably on here somewhere, but just wondering how much $$ your first service was ?? Also, did any electronic reminder come on for you in the dash ??

Have been quoted $390, $332 & $340 so where can I go to get it for a sensible price? Do I have to go to Ultratune or somewhere like that?

How can it cost $225? Was that through VW?

I paid $280 through VW and that was while supplying my own oil.

If you want cheaper mechanics, let us know where you live. If not using VW I would stick to a euro mechanic, but thats just me. If you live near Western Sydney then Seb at Girraween is your man. Don't have his details on me though.

Thanks man, but Im in Melb CBD. Guess I will just have to pay the $340, cant be stuffed looking around, bit of a rip off though

no it was not through a stealership... was through a euro mechanic.

try essendon vw - shoudl be around the same price 10 mins from the city, may pay a little bit more but at least no hassles with warranty.. Also a carwash thrown in and free oil top ups if required anytime.

Ended up paying $363 which included $30 for a puncture repair. TIP: If your in Melbourne DO NOT use Werribee Volkswagen in Hoppers Crossing (spread the word), their service was absolutely appalling & they kept 'bullshi**ing me'
