I have a 2003 Audi TT which is no longer under warranty, so the dealer will charge me for service. Is it worth having the dealer do the 60K service, or am I better of going to a Audi shop?Is it worth having the Audi dealer do the 60,000k service?as long as whoever works on it knows what they're doing and checks all that they need to check, I don't think it matters, personally I trust my mechanic over the dealership people, but that's meIs it worth having the Audi dealer do the 60,000k service?
Even if the dealership charges a little bit more for the service, I'd go with them. Peace of mind.Is it worth having the Audi dealer do the 60,000k service?Find an independent. Where are you at maybe I can recommend a shop in your area.
Having a dealer stamp in the log book will make it much easier to sell to an Audi dealer.
But if you plan on moving away fro Audi then it won't make such a difference.
If you plan on keeping the car for a while longer then go for an independent and get cheaper labour rates.Is it worth having the Audi dealer do the 60,000k service?My 2 Cents...
Some Audi Shops are very passionate about the Audi's.... they do a better job... especially if its your first time visit and tell them you just moved in town... to gain a repeat customer, they will do a nice job and also you can gain an Audi specialist advice.
Now coming to the hard part....
*Finding that Audi Mechanic that's worth the weight of gold...*
Start searching
I would say 15-20 miles is no distance if you can find a honest Audi specialist who has that real reputation/experience.
I dont intend that dealership guys are bad but try to make them your second choiceIs it worth having the Audi dealer do the 60,000k service?
Audi shop
If you are going to sell it, then go. Or just go to an ordinary shop for the serviceIs it worth having the Audi dealer do the 60,000k service?
Audi shop and here's why. The 60,000 service is a big one. All sorts of belts and fluids are replaced. Just had mine done and it was, okay, a little more expensive that Joe's Crappy Garage down the road but I've got a lovely Audi stamp in the logbook and that will keep up the residual value. I've also got the piece of mind that if anything goes wrong with the new parts, I'll take it back and will have some consumer rights. Also, they loaned me a shifty little A3 while my A4 was in the shop.
Change bulbs and oil yourself, get Audi to do the big stuff.
Cheers
