Full service

[Hunty2009]

Hi All,

i know it varies from garage to garage (im not going Renault) im having a full service tomorrow (and my rear disks) i was just wondering if anyone had a rough price on how much all the work would cost - ive supplied the rear disks but not the bearings so he will do the full service and get the bearings etc. i know the person doing it so i might get abit knocked off

Thanks

Buying the discs from Renault is an advantage, as they come with bearings and ABS rings - non genuine bearings do not tend to last long mate.

With regards to cost, i cant possibly say how much as different garages charge different rates in time and labour, so some may charge £100, others £250

mmmm its my next door neighbour doing it - always took it to him or everything he only charged £30 for fitting my springs on my astra so he is pretty decent - ive got £270 to spend so im hoping for abit of change haha

i find it cheeky to ask someone how much something is going to be, im funny like that

You should always get a price BEFORE agreeing to have work done! He might come back and say £500 and refuse to give you the keys back unless you pay up (i know it's unlikely as you know the guy, but in general you should get a quote first!)

Not bad did your neighbour do it?? did he torque up the rear hub nut to 175nm??

yeah he sorted all the little bits that needed doing on the car too tightened the exhaust mounts etc was pleased with it can tell it runs better

make sure he used the correct spark plugs too, PFR6E-10 from memory - very important that, many years ago I fitted Bosche super 4's - ran ok for a week and misfired like a pig after that - F4R's need the correct ones, so just make sure he got them mate
