Questions on 20k Service
About to have a 20k mile service on my 03 WRX PPP and have a few questions re supplying my own parts to the dealer:
- How much brake fluid will I need. Saw a post for ferrodo Dot 5.1 (JW Racing) for £11.75 for 500ml; will this be enough.
- Would Silkolene Pro S 10W/50 (£37.81 for 5 ltr) be a good oil for my car - the dealer used Castrol Magnatec as standard?
- Has anyone used Holdcroft of Staffordshire; what did you think of their service?
- Before I start phoning around tomorrow, what's a dealer likely to charge for the 30k service.
Thanks

500ml of brake fluid should be fine. Silkolene is far superior to the Magnatec $hite, and you can get it for 27 quid from Simon at Opie Oils (oilman on here, search) if you buy 4 at a time.
30k service will be around 450 quid, plus any bits he identifies need replacing. Save some cash and use an independant like Scoobyclinic.
