At least you can list it out what is in the 2.7k quote. I was quoted 7k for my vw polo 9n at 80000km, I go outside workshop for 2nd opinion.

7K?? Can you tell what they replace?

It's probably cheaper to push your car off the cliff, claim insurance and use the 7K for downpayment for another new car!!! sweat.gif

60k mileage 2.7k is normal la. You are driving an Audi for Christ's sake. doh.gif

Even D Segment is normal to charge upwards of 1.5k during major service.

Merc/BMW might even cost more than that i reckon.

Just do the major service and keep your warranty. Or next we're gonna see you open a thread complaining Audi voided your warranty when you tried to claim.

Haha...true also...if no money, don't buy expensive car.....like getting high-maintenance girlfriend...unless you are loaded, think twice..

I like your suggestion, but I still like this car a lot, maybe next major service I will do as you said.

Anyway I just go for a quote since it is a major service. It is good to know what the manufacture will do for major service. I got a shock for it as well.
End of the day I still go back to my normal shop for actual work, and the guy told me no need to change all that 1 shot, a lot can be service or reuse or change later. He just do a normal service for me for rm310 (engine oil and filter).

Here I attach page 1 of the quote, by the way my car is manual transmission, I don't know why they quoted me DSG oil. Page 2 is all 4 absorbers. Total is rm78xx.00

Lets see:

Section 1) - Labour is cut throat ..RM 3xx!!
2) Brake pads and disc no need to replace if still ok, only replace those which are worn out.
3) Totally no ideas what is all these except the timing belt...maybe some sifu here care to share the price and need to change these stuff.

Since when vw is premium conti?

my B8 year 2009 is 2 + 2 years warranty. Its also a con job. My mounting kaput within 3 years and they say the third year warranty doesnt cover the mounting but i already complain during the second year, they just say no problem. Anyway the +2 years warranty is by insurance company, not by Euromobil.
Euromobil service sucks and if your warranty is over, I strongly recommend you to go outside and fix, cheaper. If you worry a lot, you can go EverAuto or Auto Reign, they can actually send your car to be fixed by Euromobil and they get special discount for parts and labour which will still be cheaper than you send in to EM yourself.

Its normal. All the Extended warranty by insurance all con jobs. Only engine and gearbox are covered, with many hidden TnC.
