New Member - 30,000/3 Year Service

[T-Sport Wales]

Hello, this is my first post on the forum so apologies for asking for advice first time up. I've had my T-Sport (05 plate, alsace granite) for 3 months and am really enjoying the car - squeaking clutch and rattly glove box apart! The 3rd year/30,000 mile service is due next month and I was wondering how much other members have paid for this service and if there is anything I should ask the dealer to have a look at while the car is still under warranty? I've read other posts about problems with the lift bolts and I have to say when taking the car past 6500rpm I haven't had the 'hang on for dear life' experience I was expecting though I wouldn't call the car slow at these revs! Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

just a quick bit of advice regards to servicing.

im onto my 2nd toyota i use to have a celica i got 3 prices for a major service they varied by 130 pound from 190 to 320 check the toyots site for dealers near you and get 2 or 3 prices

it seems they all charge varying times when it comes to labour costs........see if you have any minories toyota in your area i have used them 3 times and they are very go

Thanks, cheapest quote I've had is £110, don't think I'll get anything cheaper than that.

That seems about about right. I paid £115 for a 5 year 50k service on my 2002 T-Sport. The intermediate service of 10k at this cost is reasonable.
