Servcing Costs, Pshhhhhhhhhhhhh !


M350ZB

Recommended Posts

Just been to the local nissan toomey garage, and been quoted,

 

P1 service = £249

 

P3 service = £408

 

Then asked about some pads, and they want,

 

£159.20 FRONT

 

£200.43 REAR

 

Surely these cannot be good prices, any suggestions at all guys ?

 

ME Z has done 31,000 miles and was last serviced 9,000 miles ago, last april 07 !

 

Thanks guys !

Yep, my recent P1 at Big Phil's was £320 including good oil and new DS2500 pads all round.

A hefty saving on the prices you wre offered and more than enough to cover the petrol for a nice drive up.

Phil will make sure you have a coffee and do the work whilst you wait :)

oh yeah if you do get the brakes done at nissan take pics of your calipers first as they are renowned for chipping the paint on them :rant:

 

doddle to fit pads though- i would do my own

And check your wheel nuts. I realised this weekend when I went to fit my new wheels that in the last 2 weeks since washing my Zed I'd managed to lose one :scare::scare: Nissan batties were the last to have the wheel off. We also checked the other nuts and the fronts were all pretty loose and the backs were fine as I'd had the tyres changed at a place that knows the torque settings a damn site better than Nissan! :surrender:

I've just booked mine in for a P3 at Chorley Nissan in Wigan. Price they quoted me was £180 all in (inc labour, oil and VAT). They are providing me with a courtesy car too.

 

I didn't get the prices for P1 or P2 but I will try and remember to ask when I take the car there.

i have it on good authority he also has biscuits B)

 

What :blink: I didn't get one of those!

 

 

But you only came in for a badge and half a cup of coffee (your words) ;)

You need to buy more than just a badge to get biccies :p I got me half a box of biccies and several cups of tea when I was there, and my car washed, so you can only imagine how much I spent :blush:

Tsk. Where do you think my shiny new exhaust came from.. I popped in for biccies, I mean badges, but ended up with the 5Zigen :)

 

 

Back to thread, essex to sunderland is about 4.5 hours, possibly 4 if you are naughty. Its' worth it.
