major service cost?
Hi all, bit of info if anyone can help. Im trying to find out an estimated price for a full major service. Draining all fluids, flushing and re filling, all new filters, plugs, gearbox, trans, axels, hubs. Basically the full shebang so to speak.are we talking £500, £1000?Ive tried to call few dealers but they wont give me a price without seeing it.

Main dealer around 500 or a bit more, indi about 400. I went indipendant with mine very pleased in the end. But they are LR specialists. ____\We|Will|Win/___

Is that to include draining all fluids as per the OP..? I would have guessed that's a full service price, but I don't think they change all the fluids - do they..?

Cheers

Indi does but can't comment on main dealer. Main dealer doesn't do brake fluid though, they want more again for that, which does need doing. Rolling Eyes ____\We|Will|Win/___

Wow, that's good. I would imagine draining gearbox, axles etc takes them a fair amount of time. At that price its a great deal.... Thumbs Up

cheers

£400 I paid iirc and that includes brake fluid change too. If that was main dealers it would be around the 600 mark. Shocked ____\We|Will|Win/___
