Ferrari VR6 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 93K, timing chains were done at 65K, i have VW receipts for a £1700 service 3 years ago Link to post Share on other sites
nickbee 1 Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 i have VW receipts for a £1700 service You mean they not only changed the oil, but also checked the tyre pressure? Mine's going to turn 110 soon. As far as I know there hasn't been any major work yet, but it needs the tensioners doing. Link to post Share on other sites
