How much for a service?!

[Timberflake]

£297.00 for a service in Leicester, seems a bit steep!

Hello Timberflake, I'm in Leicester to where did you get quoted that?

[Timberflake]

Citroen Leicester, Raw Dykes Road. I've got a personal lease with Citroen & it says they can invalidate my warranty if any work is carried out by a non Citroen garage.

Seems very high though & assume thats only going to go up in years 2 and 3!

Where abouts in Leicester are you??

Sounds steep to me, i paid £517 upfront, for first 3 services at dealer, £214 for 4th service, which i thought was expensive.

I know my lease says I have to go to a Citroen "approved" garage, not an actual Citroen dealership. Check the wording if I were you.

How much for a service?!

Word for word under section 13 of my contract Servicing and maintenance obligations:
"When servicing or any other work needs to be carried out on the vehicle you will, at your own cost, take the vehicle to the dealer".

However, under 13.2 it states:
"All servicing and other work must be carried out by a Citroen dealer or authorised repairer..."

How do I find an authorised repairer?

Ask them and ask to see some certification?
