Just had my 50k service at 53,000miles. Miraculously I have found a service centre who have finally pretty much sorted my wheel balance problem. They also replaced the discs and pads all round and told me that the turbo hose was no longer connected so effectively I have been driving around naturally aspirated. As the car is a company owned vehicle I never worry about the servicing costs, however I decided to ask how much the bill was....£650! Glad I don't pay for it, that is more expensive than an Inspection 1 on my old Z3M.

 

Unfortunately the dealer is having arguments with Citroen so is not able to carry out any warranty work at present so the other outstanding problem has to be fixed next week by another garage. I am told that the reason I can smell diesel fumes inside the car is because I need new injectors and seals.

 

Since the service my indicator keeps telling me that the car is overdue a service, despite me resetting it twice. Seem to recall reading there is a problem with this and a software update sorts it out. So back to the dealer again tomorrow. At least the brakes don't squeal anymore...lets see how long it lasts though.

Just had my first 20,000 mile service last week which cost £244.

 

Over half that amount was labour. (£148) :P

 

Also had the XYT recall done.

 

£75 an hour to change the oil is taking the micky. :huh:

Just about to get my 20,000 mile service done, a bit early, but i asked my dad to get citroen to look at the brakes becuase there are sooooo soft! :huh: quite scary to be honest. He said that they might as well do the service at the same time, makes sense to me!
