Main dealer Knowledge

Hi all last week had my car in for 45000 mile service done by an independent (very satisfied).
Before this service I asked Chipperfield Herts landrover dealers to give me a price for the same service which would have been almost £140 more than the independent. However in the detailing for the service items was £4-30 for remote battery.
I contacted them today and asked if this was for the key fob, yes was the reply.
Oh i asked do you replace it in the fob then which is a sealed unit.Not sure they replied we will get back to you, Still waiting for reply, let you know later. These are Landrover main dealers it makes you wonder? 57 reg GS leather seats panoramic sun roof

They are no doubt quoting for a MY13 service. I think LR just change the service schedule (eg by upping the mileage between services because of improvements in oil technology) and this is just applied to all cars in the model range, whatever the age. The MY13 has a replaceable fob battery - mind you, I'd wonder why they don't quote to replace the battery in both fobs.
