  • Good Mechanic

    Just wondering if anyone can recommend any good mechanic around the Parramatta area. I have a 103tdi golf with 35ks on it and has been serviced with dealership in Burwood for the 1st and 2nd scheduled service and now asking for $1500 for the next service. The car does not get driven a lot and would like to send the car to someone who i can regularly get my car service with.

    Always good to try independents, however VW do offer Capped Price Servicing. $1,500 for a 3yr / 45,000km service seems excessive. Here is a link to Capped Price Servicing; Capped Price Servicing | Volkswagen Australia

    Let us know what price comes up with your car's details...

      It came to $465, but bought the car before 1st Jan 2013, so they are telling me it's not included in the Capped Price Servicing. I don't get why your allowed to input models in the table and get a price for a service they can't provide. Thanks for reply.

        Call up a different dealer, they are taking you for a ride. I can tell you from my own experience that the dealerships honour the capped price services on cars prior to 1st Jan 2013. Just do a ring around, might save you a $1,000!

          independent service centre should cost between $380-420 for this service and possible brake fluid flush at a extra cost if required, $1500 is BS.

                Have a look in the recommended repairers section there are several good independents in the Parra / Seven Hills area
