Car Servicing

[Brandon1]

Good day

I've been wondering this for a while and I'm hoping somebody can give me answer. Does a car's service cost the same at every dealership? For a real world example - I drive an Opel Corsa, and I'm wondering does every Opel dealership charge the same amount of money. Or would I be able to get my service a bit cheaper at smaller cities for example instead of Fourways?

No they don't always charge the same amount. Bmw differs per branch unless they running a dealership wide special.

Seems an easy question to answer...... ask multiple dealers to quote you.

Shop around. You'll likely find different hourly labour rates.

Find the one that takes care of your car, not the one charging the least.

Totally agree. Im using a dealer thats 40km further than my last dealer, just because they actually care about my car. picked up things others did not.

When I had a Toyota I noticed the Mccarthy dealerships were cheaper

Interesting question. if the car is NOT under warranty why not service it yourself and take care of it?

I have done this for all my cars, with some help for larger jobs like cam belt and water pump replacements.

I also service my cars out of warranty. Different strokes for different folks
