10 year or 70k Service price advice
My baby is due her 10year or 70k service (she has done 69,643 now ) what does it entail and how much is it likely to be?
As my baby is low miles she has previously been serviced by the years rather than her mileage but i think some things on what would normal be done on a higher milage might need doing now.
in my understanding that means although shes only done 70k she gets a 100k mileage service as shes nearly 10 years old (will be 10 end of august)
What have you all paid for your 100k service? and what did you all get done? diff oil / new cambelt/gearbox oil/ filter etc

Servicing should always be done by 10k miles OR 1 year, whichever is first, so your car should be on 100k miles OR 10 years, which I believe is a cambelt service, you may well wish the idlers done at the same time.

Lisa, mine is due the same. I spoke to Silverstone and they said pricewise around £230 (but that also included race spec brake fluid and braided brake hoses) They recommend going by the age of the car at our mileage i.e. a 10 year service as opposed to a 70k one. IIRC, engine oil and filter. Check the plugs and replace if necessary. Brake fluid. Air filter change / clean (if it`s reusable). Gearbox oil and a few other bits and bobs......which I can`t remember As for cambelt, that should have been done around the 60k mark anyway

230 ish doesnt seem to bad *sigh* more money gone that could be spent on fueling it haha :P
also another thing i was wondering is how much are you looking at for a new clutch and fitting? my car is 68k miles and on the orig clutch as far as i know :/

that sounds pretty reasonable tbh i was expecting like 500 area. Do they have a good reputation? i really have trust issues with garages. also wonder how long i will get out of the standard clutch if it has been treated well before me owning it etc.

i dont mind it just means im learning more
£230 sounds ok not to scary lol
my cambelt was changed about the 43k /5 year service so this would be its second cambelt change that is due now i guess. my clutch was changed in 2010 so thats ok no slipping etc.
think im just going to have to take the car down and all my paper work and let silverstone work it out lol

You should pop over and have a word with Mark at Silverstone. He`ll tell you what`s what even if you`re doing it yourself
*Oh, just saw your other post*
I know NKS charge around £200 for a cambelt so I`d imagine a bit dearer at Silverstone....VAT and all that
