Much, MUCH cheaper..... almost a grand.. what a joke. This is what happens when you do not give your 'terms and conditions' to the service department prior to handing over the keys.

Service departments are notorious at adding high profit 'extras' such as wiper blades, cleaning and oil additives to an invoice, adding hundreds of dollars for no real benefit.

And most pay because they can't be bothered questioning / arguing it. Which is exactly how the service departments like it.
