Just got my car Serviced (£315)

24,000 Miles on clock

Front Tyres = 4mm [Pirelli P7]

Rear Tyres = 4mm [Pirelli P7]

Diesel Fuel Filter is changed on year 3 or 36,000 mile Service

Updated software for DIM, CEM and ECM http://********************/smile/emthup.gif

Whilst my car was in there was an error code for EGR valve that could not be cleared in VIDA (No light on dash

). Dealer ordered and fitted new updated EGR Valve.

Also screen wash motor (pump) was replaced as when you wash rear screen the front gets a dribble of water on from front jets.

I'll run my tryes for another 8 months then fit my new Sculptors with Continental Sport Contact 2 tyres.

Happy Bunny !

Re: 2 Year 24K service on 2.0D V50 (denzo)

Ouch!

Mine's in tomorrow but it's £290 for mine. No original tyres left though, two went after hitting something and the consequent alignement issues wiped out the rears in 20,000 miles!

Is your's a euro 3 or 4. Mines's a 3 and I'm wondering if it's due any updates? I suppose that's an advantage of main dealer servicing - updates are known, the local independant wasn;t actually that much cheaper (£20)

Hi ..

My engine is a Euro III.

Chester .... Rybrook? for a full 24K service £290?

Mine albeit a Euro4 was recently in for its 36K service. one thing to perhaps check is the Air filter - there is a silly replacement interval (36K i think)on these and mine was apparently nearly blocked at 24K.

Mine had fuel filter done, and the Euro4 needs some sort of oil/fluid tank for the E4 system filling. The dealer couldn't find it having never had an S40 Euro4 at this mileage yet!

Mine's a lease jobbie so no idea on costs (but the filters will be cheap) but you're doing really well on the original tyres, would love to be able to put some sculptors on mine.

Re: (Richard_S40)

I totally agree

Volvo in Europe has strange filters change intervals. I plan to tell min to change them anyways NOW! All of them, no matter the cost. Clean filter is a base for good engine running, and mpg's!!!

BTW - the cost of filters is not that high, then why they are running cheap on us?
