Off to the dealers tomorrow for 36,000 mile service( actually overdue by about 2000 miles but hey!)...has anybody had this done at a UK dealer and what was the cost? 2.0 CRD.
I'm not expecting any change out of £400... :(

Never did own mine long enough to get that far , but as again its just filters & levels & being a diesel no plugs are involved , plus your fuel filter should have been changed at 27.000........so there is no reason why it should be above £300....Well just a guess!!

Yeah I can tell that the fuel filter is needing done:p Hopefully it won't be an outrageous price...at least its not a City Centre dealership with their ludicrous hourly rates.

I have to wonder at the quality of the fuel filters they use..it had one changed at 22,000 miles to cure previous misfire...never known a vehicle have so many issues with filters clogging!:mad:

Also getting the handbrake looked at again, my Dad had his 2011 Patriot
in a fortnight ago and after telling them I had read all the problems on here they stripped out the handbrake lever and discovered defective parts which they replaced...now it has a very effective handbrake that you struggle to take beyond two clicks! So hopefully they will resolve that on mine!

Right...service done...grand total of £292.90 made up of:
Parts £146.09
Labour £ 98.00
V.A.T £ 48.81

Track rod end needs replacing but surprise surprise they don't keep them in stock :mad: so have to wait until it comes in and then go back and get it fitted.:icon_rolleyes:

Had my 36k service couple of weeks ago - main dealer in Swindon. Came to £338.41 inc VAT etc.

Interesting... I had a track rod replaced as well.

Also forgot to add that I now have a handbrake that works perfectly and only needs two clicks to be fully on instead of nearly yanking it out of the floor and still needing to play footsie with the brake and clutch on any kind of slope!:pepper:
