XC70: General - Year 5 service - schedule? - Page 2

garethXC · Oct 7th, 2020, 17:37

Well guys.... its now year 6 service time - so can anyone advise if this is a 'big' or 'small' one?
Its the first that I will be actually paying for ( yes, I know I paid for them before on the service plan... but...). The aux belt & tensioner were done last year as per reccomendations from clan etc ( thanks) . Mileage now 68750.
The car is ( just) under the last 3 months of extended volvo warranty so incase of unwelcome surprises its going to a main dealer ( close by - sadly no indies within a good distance apparently).
I have also seen that Marshalls do a year 4 + discount service regime ( see: https://www.marshall.co.uk/volvo/aft...proved-service) which has some resonable discount attached. I aim to get the MOT done independantly the day before a service.
Advice?

If the 5th was a small one the 6th will be the bigger one. I think standard cost about £440 from main dealer

You can check the rough cost on Volvo uk website

Cheers but the volvo link shows a cost of £1,050 for the year 6 service.... not a chance!!.
The marshalls links shows £449 for a major service on their affinity 4+ programme...

It shows that price as that's including a timing belt which is 108k or ten years ( whichever comes first )You obviously don't require a timing belt at 68k
