Repairs or maintainence? For routine maintainence, you're looking at $80 oil changes and $400+ 40k service due to the dsg. It also has a timing belt rather than chain so that needs replacing (probably not an issue for Lloyd with the low miles he drives). For repairs, we've between bitten by a high pressure fuel pump failure and clogged dpf / egr filter.

$80 oil change? what the hell kind of oil are they using, gold injected?? :)

Silver Slimer
80$ oil changes make sense if you're using synthetic oil (as I do) and get the filter replaced and everything else.

Nashton
I would have been getting synthetic oil and a filter change for $45 plus tax, if I didn't get my $750 one time service fee.

$80 for an oil change is just another figment of his imagination.

I don't believe you at all.

Suit yourself.

That's probably because you don't know a deal when you see it. Mac users are a lot like that. Pay too much for too little.

This from the man who just paid how much for a Slovienian Volkswagen?
