Service price is about average. I paid more or less that at an Indy for a 24k service never mind a 60k and LR wanted touching on 500! Plenty of work required to do the job.
P.s. Regarding the ITG filter K9F has one along with a Safari snorkel and has no issues. Just don't oil it to much. Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧 |

This may be useful?
 Click image to enlarge Agree re Costco - I usually get my oil there (or Opie)... I don't think you need a sump plug...I'm sure mine had a rubber re-usable washer... http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic8707.html Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's) |

Just time consuming. Meaning plenty of labour cost so approx half the price at least will be labour. Fluids especially engine oil costs a fair bit too. If you buy a kit yourself or even do it yourself I would go for Genuine parts every time. Aftermarket will likely be Britpart or similar and inferior. Just my opinion anyway.

Thanks everyone,
I basically live on Costco products, sushi, bagel, chicken, milk, dog food, it's like Groundhog Day when I go, at least I can now visit the oil isle too! 
Oh I've just seen the oil change sticky in the puma section Doh Don't you just love newbies too keen to learn and don't bother reading! Pick the car up tomorrow, first stop, security, second: service, third: upgrades its only a car! |

I just had a 60k B type service carried out today at Westovers, Christchurch (I didn't have to pay for it.....another story). Yet again their attitude seems to have changed for the better, funny how it seems 'cyclic?'
380 would have been the bill....... 
Can't complain even if I did have to pay for it.....currently got a little over 33k on it and the last time she was serviced was July 2010 at the 24k point. I do drop the oil every 6k though and had the Femco Drainplug fitted in lieu of a sump plug so no more oil on the block paving......They did like the truck too and have a Twisted 110 on the plot for a cool 42k!
Linky fingy for oil drain plug if interested: http://www.drainplug.co.uk/products.html If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!! Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!! |
