Question

As I dont do too many miles in the Scoob, 6 months usually comes up way before 6000 miles and so I'm due for my next 6 month service anytime soon with only 15k on the clock (had the car 18 months).

What sort of costs (from Subaru garage) should I expect for the 18 month service (last service was 11k - £300 inc body work service).

Any ideas? I'll start saving then!


ta

Neil

Should be a minor IIRC - between 100 and 150 quid depending on dealer, why not ring around a few

Cool

18 month service is just a simple oil/filter change so you should be looking at £100.

well if I need new sparks, discs and pads at 15k miles (no track days) I'll be bl00dy fuming!! 25k maybe, bit not 15!

Out of interest how much are discs, pads and sparks? rough idea?

I think spark plugs are part of the 24 month/30,000 mile service which is £400+. Brake pads are probably around the £90-£100 and then you have to pay the labour to fit them....
