First service cost - Nissan Micra '05

j@utis

hi there,

my micra just hit 20k miles and I'm about to get it service. any idea how much should it cost? I've heard that garages like charging women more thinking they have no clue about the work they've done...

I got my car serviced with advanced pitstop and its a standard price of 180 for any car with an engine under 2 litres.

a non-dealer garage you are looking between 140-150 euro for a standard service if you car need brakes or anything else they will be extra but the cost of checking them should be included in the service

yeah, I know 3 years seems like a good bit of time, but I got this car only 2 months ago. p.s. bought it of adverts.ie, went through the hell to get the ownership transfered.

I looks like I'm paying a visit to the 'advanced pitstop' in next couple of days...

according to service schedule for 3 years 45000km its 1.5 hours and its mainly checks apart from replace oil and oil filter,brake fluid and coolant/ anti freeze

I'd go to the main dealer for this one.
I generally dislike Advance too.

Take it to a Nissan Main dealer, they will (should) give it some TLC for its first service.

Have to say buying a 3 year old car that has never been serviced is really asking for trouble.

I'd have to agree. Leaving it that long is negligence and could easily invalidate any warranty (if any) that remains.

car is going to nissan dealer for service the next wednesday, I just hope the bill I'll get won't break the bank.
