Hi All,
Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong spot and would be happy to be moved but couldn't find what I was looking for in the Recommended Repairers section.
My MY12.5 Polo GTi service message has come up and I need to get my car serviced. So far I have called Essendon VW which said that they don't know how much it would cost to do a 15k service on my car and estimated it to be about $420-$453. Free Loan car included in the price.
Epping VW wouldn't even return my call after leaving a message with the receptionist and the service center phone. Such a bad impression all ready. Not to mention my brother has also had issues with them in the past.
I also called Euroclass in Richmond who quoted me $350 for the service which sounds good. Only problem is they don't have a loan car.
Can anyone recommend a service center or specialist and what should I expect to pay for my first service?
P.S. this is my first VW. I live in the Northern suburbs and work in South Yarra. Vic.
Thanks Chaps,
Eddie

Had 105K service at Volks Affair in South Melbourne the other week (was recommended here) and was pretty happy with service.

Im in Qld and was quoted prices similar to yours from Stealers I had the Polo done by a sponsor on here for just over half those prices.
It took all of 45mins as an indication.
My Passat was done at German Motors and cost $300 approx for the 15k service including a VCDS printout that I asked them to do for a specific reason.
No more stealers for me.

$380 including loan car from Burwin VW in ferntree gully. It is the ONLY dealership I would send anyone too. No surprises regarding essendon Vw, my car came back more scratched than when I dropped it off for the pre-delivery detail at Bayford Vw in Epping so it's a good thing for you they never called back.

Why do the VW dealer thing? Why not go to ultratune and get a taxi to wherever you need to go? Its not like a dealer will be any more adept at pulling a sump plug than the Ultratune guy.

Supply your own oil to Ultratune, cheaper again.

I last used Berwick Volkswagen. Very good, I know a bit of a trek, I used to use Burwins but not any more, gone downhill for me and a couple of others that I know that have used them.

You need to be careful taking your car for servicing other than VW. If somthing goes wrong they have grounds for denying warrantee because they didn't do the checks and preventative service...and any other bulls**t excuses they can come up with.
And with my current VW's somewhat poor reliability I would do anything to keep the warrantee in check (though I will still say I LOVE the drive and the looks)
