When did u have your first service

[Klang1.6]

got a cup right, for bout a year and a half and am thinking it cud do wit a service, done just over 14k, how much is the first service and what they likely to change..doesnt seem as nippy as it was but thats just prob me.



oh heres summat to surprise or worry you..done 14k on frount tyres and yes they need changing too.

first service is 12 k mate!

Get it done post haste

Mine was £140

shop around reno garages! I was quoted £210 in some places!

IIFC by leaving it until 14k you will have invalidated your warranty as you have to get it serviced within a certain numbe of miles or time after the service is due?

Anyone care to comment?

And to answer your question, mine was £149 all in

 

[Klang1.6]

ok i best get it done then

how much are cup tyres at reno? i need 2

 

[homerjay]

from renault, not cheap!

get em online and ya may get em for about half the price...

 

[PJVTS]

Yep voided warranty!! you get 1k leeway :O

Could be lucky though? pretty sure they will say no thoughy as your at min 2k over,

Yup warrenty gone.

14k on the front tyres is quite impressive, think I managed about 8k max before they were illegal.

Your 100% warently is up on parts they can prove would be ok if youd taken it in for service at the normal times.

They will now only pay a % of warently bills.

opps

 

[PJVTS]

sh*t me im 11900 miles been serviced and still have 4mm on original tyres! and the brakes pads were 15% worn. lmao

 

[Chad]

Just had mine done @ 9500 miles £180 but they did sort out a lot of warranty work. 2nd set of fronts are down to 4mm and brakes are 50% worn.

 

[PJVTS]

the guy who owned the car before me (upto 9k) must have really been good with it!

tis immaculate the discs have no lip or anything :O - i was a little shocked when the service guy told me 15% lol

ah well im sure these will be greatly increased next service

[rich[182]]

[disco]

When does a new dci need its first service??? I had 18k in my head but after seeing all this 12k talk i am starting to doubt my self. I thought 18k was a little on the high side in terms of break pad wear etc!!

20K out of contis, do you only drive it in reverse or something. My 1st set lasted 6000 miles.

err not unless its 4 yrs old it should only have needed one, really depends on what warrenty work it was. You may have just got lucky!

Just been quoted £205 for my 24k service, I asked them to explain why another dealer charged me £160 for the 12k service which is exactly the same, they asked if I had the receipt detailing this and I said yep, so they dropped the price.

 

[nobblebonce]

well if services are every 12k and my first one werent done till 25k why aint mine been void not that im moaning of cousre.

I had all new relays in the engine as they were all faulty.

2 yrs or 18k whichever happens first.

Depending upon how you drive depends how long the pads last my first lasted about 19k the second set lasted 16k.
