Just serviced the car after 4 years of getting it done by a local garage.
The air filter is from new a red foam colour and then the service part is pink foam,the one i took oiut was red!
the spark plugs are from New are V-A-G (volkswagon audi group)and dated on the collar with the production date of the plugs.
I removed these very old looking poorly conditioned plugs and lo and behold they are dated 04/05 (when the car was made,but not registered).
So the key elements of any service have never been done!!! filter and plugs are the ones the car was made with!!!
When i do the oil filter it better not be dated!!!!
any similar experiences with garages just stamping the book for the cash or recommending/advising on items replacement that went on for ages??
