Hi Guys,

It's the big one.

I've seen a couple of posts referring to the high price of the 90K mile service. Can anyone be specific? How much can I expect to pay? Looking at SIDC FAQ it looks like it is the same as the 30K and 60K service + the camshaft belts.

I'm bracing myself.

Any top tips or recommendations welcome. I'm in Edinburgh.

All help gratefully received!

90k - same service as 45k.

The service is small, the cam belt is the killer.

£400???ish

Hi Guys,

I've booked it in. For future reference: 350 pounds is the ticket for the 45K mile equivalent. One garage told me that the 90K mile is effectively the 30K / 60K and 45K together - result = 500 pounds. Mmmmm...

Thanks for the help.

You could buy a 2nd-hand Impreza for that!

Still recovering from the 15k service...

You want to try a 30K service + new pads (Mintex 1155)+ hoses

£650...

£330 for my 45K service (cam belt)

Had the big 90K a year ago or so. Not including new rear pads and a couple of small extras, cost ~£510. Ouch. I had to wonder if it's worth using Subaru dealer for it (I did, however), given that it will be quite a lot cheaper elsewhere, if you have someone local who knows what they're doing.

Matt

Which dealer are you going to? AF Noble?
Bought my MY00 from Lothian Sports Cars who have now closed, so I'll be looking for a new dealer at some stage...
