    Was just quoted around €270 for a 3 year service. Main dealer.

    Oil
    Filter
    Pollen filter
    Fuel filter

    Seems reasonable to me, any thoughts?

    Is the fuel filter a pain on these - thought I read that somewhere. The only real way to know is ring a few factors and see what the cost of the materials are - also ringing a ford dealers parts dept and getting prices mightnt be a bad idea.

    At a guess - I figure 150 would cover you for parts and oil, if you were doing it yourself - but you loose your dealer stamp

    The first 3 are easy, DIY for sure.

    I done my fuel filter there last week and it is abit awkward but nothing too bad really.

    270 euro seems mental unless you have a fear of tools and abit of elbow grease.:)

    The car is still under warranty so will stick with Ford for this one, after that I'll roll up my sleeves.

    Is it based on their menu pricing?

    There is a big banner up in Tallaght Ford with reasonable pricing on it, but I can't remember how much it should be.

    €270 does seem a bit on the high side to me.
