Car is having it's 24k service v.soon. What should I expect to pay. A friend said £400ish! Surely it should be a couple hundred max for an oil change? Also my trip computer is playing up. Says I'm doing 30mph when I'm doing 70mph. (Pity THAT won't stand up in court!) Any ideas how to fix - or...

Firstly; SORRY about that whatthefudge. I WAS joking. Only, Americans are born with a deep rooted sense of not knowing what irony is. (I have spoken to quite a few.) Secondly: Only a complete soon-to-be-spastic wouldn't wear a seatbelt, or find it cool, or even think of telling anybody that...
