    Hi I’m looking for a full service for a Ford Fiesta. St line 2021 model. What’s an average price for a full service by an authorised Ford dealer? Tried ringing yesterday but no answer. Looking for full not basic service.

    If you have a Ford what have you paid in the past and what price is reasonable?

    Did you buy it new yourself? Always had a free first service with any new ford?

    Ford main dealers used to have a price list on their website for standard servicing which were very fair prices

    What milage is on it if a 2021 car needs a full service already?!. For oil change and all the filters and spark plugs maybe 200 euro.

    Ford got back to me with a price of €350 for a full service. I’ll be going elsewhere, that’s fierce expensive!

    11,000 KM


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,544 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    Dunno why you’d need a major service, assuming that’s what they quoted for.

    Also, I thought some of the newer Fords were on 24 month/30k servicing?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,685 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    With 11km on the clock you should just get a scheduled service, not necessarily full. Oil and filters should do after a year. Ask the dealer what's required.

    With an almost new car I would stick to the dealer personally, regardless of the price, but if they require basic service only that's what I would do.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,410 ✭✭✭easygoing39


    AT 10,000 km I'd be doing the oil and oil filter at the very least.

    11000km is nothing, and it’ll have high quality oil in it. Why would you bother changing it?

    The dealer can advise if the service is required.

    Doing it for the sake of doing it is pointless.

    Unfortunately there is no set schedule for Fiesta in the manual for some reason, but 11k km is nothing indeed.

    The dealer looks to be suggesting a major service is needed after 11k/12 months

    I think it is the op who asked for the price of it rather than dealer suggesting it tbh.

    There is a recent thread on Ford service cost here https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=115995831
    The link I posted on it with a discount no longer works though. The OP on the link was quoted €179.00 for a 2019 Ford Focus annual service in a Ford dealership so should be in around the same price.

    Don't expect anything from life, just be grateful to be alive.

    I believe it'll tell you when it needs to be serviced. 1 year and 11,000 Kms it probably doesn't need a service at all.

    Believe me it just tell you to ask the dealer ;)

    You can book online here
    https://www.ford.ie/owner/my-vehicle/book-a-service

    Put in chassis number and mileage, pick your dealer and it'll give you your options and prices.

    I did an annual service of a 171 fiesta a few weeks back for 160.

    No work needed other than an annual service.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,365 ✭✭✭User1998


    From the photo above the Focus requires a service at 20,000km so I’d probably just wait until 2 years/20,000km and go to the main dealer for a minor service (Oil and oil filter)

    If you insist on getting it done now I would just get a minor service. Definitely no need for a full service

    I meant the car will tell you. In the OBC

    Can an independent garage not service a car without affecting the warranty if genuine parts are used?

    They can, but not worth the hassle imo.

    If you bring it to Ford yiu don't have to prove genuine parts being used. It's given.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,544 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm

    Not exactly, but some offer an extended warranty separate to their basic warranty which may be dependant on main dealer servicing or annual inspections

    I'm old,over 30 years servcing my own/family's cars,I feel the modern service intervals are too long.Yes I know car manufactor's spend billions on research,but for the sake of a few quid I don't see the harm in regular oil changes.



    Off topic,but I've a trackday car thats gets fresh Mobil 1 after every outing.

    My thinking too. I suppose if a car as far as the manufacturers figure is only expected to last the length of the PCP period plus one, maybe two goes on the secondhand market through the dealer network then fine, but like you I have always worked on regular oil changes. In my case I go a little overboard and do an oil and oil filter(and air filter) change no later than every 5000 kms and usually 3000. Then again I am running a much older car than most with near 30 year old tech. Still, after 22 years and 170,000 odd kms it uses almost no oil in between changes and around 40 ppm on the NCT and that's with an engine that was well known, nay renowned to be more like a two stroke for using oil. IMHO those oil changes(along with waiting until it was 100% warmed up before pushing it) are responsible for that.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.
