Had mine in at Team Valley last week.
Pretty good service - sorted out a few niggles. Not quite Lexus standards, but all the same friendly and helpful and I'll certainly use them again.
No cleaner on duty - so was just washed down - no big deal.
Came to £365 inc a set of rear pads (one had siezed). Discounted the price of a fuel filter that was done in December.
Very happy with that.

Does anyone know what work is carried out on the 4th service because it seems very expensive?

cheers

How expensive is expensive/, have mine booked in for 4th service week tomorrow for £270

Merged into to 4th Service Thread  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Just had my 4th service done and chose Adventure 4x4 after a couple of positive comments on here and a competitive quote for that and other work. All I can say is it's a bit hard to disaggregate the service only cost but their. er, service was excellent.

Other work needed was clutch (complete with stupid dual mass flywheel) replaced, rear discs, pads all round, glow plugs and 4 new tyres. Generally, I'm disappointed that a car that has been looked after and until this one, main dealer serviced and repaired form new, needs so much money invested in it to keep it working as it should. Obviously I don't include tyres and pads in that equation. Also its only done 40K I've never had to put a clutch in a car in the last 25 years and no I've not had all automatics

Of course I've no idea how he first owner drove it for the initial 18000 miles but my 24000 have been with care.

Hay ho, its a good job I enjoy driving it still else it would be on its way for sure. Also available in Clean.

just had ours done at stratstone nottingham for £360 they came and collected from work and brought it back valeted ,all in all very pleased as hunters derby wanted upwards of £500!!!

Just picked up my FL2 from Team Valley LR after its 4th Service and MOT, car all nice and clean inside and out, cost well they did look quite apologetic when I walked in to reception and I was expecting a large bill as the rear brakes and handbrake were shot and needed replacing so with the service, mot, fitting of some new colour coded door handles (I know people have fitted themselves, but as Mrs Toeknee reminds me I’m like a bull in a china shop at times)rear discs & pads, handbrake kit and front pads plus labour and Vat at £130 it came to just over £800.
Quite a large amount to pay but god knows what my local dealer would have charged but a not so pleasant bill made easier by the customer service offered by the two Grahams and Dave

That's how I started

Anyone service these cars themselves, mine needs another service in 20 days and will probably do myself, other than the oil change which i will let kwick fit do as i cant even buy the oil for what they charge, they use any oil you ask for too and give you a litre for top ups

Thanks CG, as some of these cars are pushing 4 years old and out of warrenty i suspect other owners will be considering servicing themselves too. May be a good idea to have a sticky in the technical section with details of how to change the usual service items / brakes etc  freelander 2 SE black and beige - now sold

This sort of thing? The graphics haven't come out. Maybe a way round this.
