    105kms and brake pads service costs ??

    Gday guys
    My car is up for the 105k service and just want to know what's the costs and what's involved . I'm happy enough to do it myself if it's only oil and filters or is there more involved in this service

    Secondly I have the brake wear indicator on my MFD meaning I'm probably up for pads too , ideas on what pads are good and rough costs would be really helpful before I get ripped off

    Thanks in advance

    Says in the service book what's due mate.

    If the pad warning is on, then you need pads, unless its a broken wire.

    Understand how it works, troubleshoot logically BEFORE replacing parts.

    Will just be a basic oil and filter service.

    No timing belt to do on these.

    After posting this yesterday I rang Volkswagen and was told it involved a timing belt and water pump change costing $1506
    $502 for the service
    And another $1100 for the brakes and rotors

    I think they are taking me for a ride

    Try Brakes Direct for the discs and pads. Then fit them yourself.

    Did you think to ask them how they plan to change the timing belt on an engine with a timing chain?

    I hope their techs are more competent than their service advisors!
