View Full Version : Are service items (apart from oil) same for longlife and time/distance servicing?

I've just had a quote for a 40K mile longlife service on my TDi 170 at a dealer for £291.33 inclusive which seems OK. However, on looking further, the fuel filter and dust/pollen filter are extra, taking the service to £365.07. A time and distance 'full' service includes these items.

Given that VW offer a major service for 3+ year old cars at £259, an extra £100 seems quite a lot if the only difference is the long life oil. Basically, what I want to know is whether the service itself is the same between long life/T&D apart from the oil?
