captint Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 P3 service is coming up, anyone have a price indication? Quote
P15UL T Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 i was quoted £334 for parks nissan in Ayr Scotland Quote
DJ Dunk Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 I paid £280 all in from Beadles Maidstone. Quoted me that price the phone but tried to charge me £330 on the day, they dropped the price straight away for me when I mentioned it I think I was originally mis-quoted and would expect the nearer £330.

lomoto Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 excuse me butting in (Mind you never has stopped me before ) What do you actually get for your £300 ?? what parts do they change etc.. obviously oil/filter/air filter.. but what else?? Quote
P15UL T Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 if you look a the service book that is about it, they do however grease a few bits for you and also charge you extra for gear box and brake fluid changes !!!! fcuking rip off Quote

Guest prescience Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 The thing is though Tim, when you resell, for a UK car the difference between having a full main dealer service history and not is IMO worth more than the differential cost Quote
captint Posted November 12, 2006 Author Posted November 12, 2006 So I don't need a new air filter, will supply my own oil, so will the do- Gearbox and brake fluid Washer fluid Spark flugs Oil Filter and so all else, not worth the money, but I still have 5 months of warrently and want to have the option to use it right up to when I go FI. Bugger, any point in buying a nismo oilfilter Quote
Guest prescience Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 spark plugs are not replaced until 54k Quote
lomoto Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 The thing is though Tim, when you resell, for a UK car the difference between having a full main dealer service history and not is IMO worth more than the differential cost maybe myself I would be happier with specialist service history with invoices to back it up, rather than a neat set of rubber stamps signifying that a Main Dealers mechanics had been let loose on your pride and joy..but thats just me being cynical The stories I've read on this site alone of cars not only not being serviced correctly, but being damaged to boot makes me shudder Quote
captint Posted November 12, 2006 Author Posted November 12, 2006 Yeah, I agree, but I want the option for example if my gear box goes belly up to get it done under warrenty, if I go specialist, the stealers will tell me to s@d off Quote
lomoto Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Yeah, I agree, but I want the option for example if my gear box goes belly up to get it done under warrenty, if I go specialist, the stealers will tell me to s@d off no they wont , under European law , if the vehicle is serviced to makers standards and genuine parts/recommended oils etc. are used you will be OK..despite any scaremongering by Main dealer service outlets..

captint Posted November 12, 2006 Author Posted November 12, 2006 Not that I don't believe you, but is there anything to substantiate this. Quote
ir_fuel Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Imho Nissan only gives you warranty if it has been serviced by an authorized Nissan garage. Quote
ir_fuel Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Oh, and even if EU law states this, you will be the one that has to prove that the car has been serviced correctly when you want to claim warranty, and i dont see how you will be able to do that. Quote
lomoto Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Not that I don't believe you, but is there anything to substantiate this. it is fact... you can do a Google if you like you could even ask your local Nissan dealer and watch 'em squirm Oh Ok here you go chapter and verse for the disbelievers http://www.oft.gov.uk/News/Press+releas ... 170-03.htm Quote
captint Posted November 13, 2006 Author Posted November 13, 2006 So are there any non Stealer recommendations in the South, ie West London to Swindon Quote
ir_fuel Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 Just out of curiousity, how much do Nissan dealers in the UK charge per hour? Quote
