Sound right?

[reedy]

Hey all,

My Smart is coming up to it's first B service. It's a 2007 450 Fortwo Passion with 7,350 miles. Rung my local Smart dealer (Smart Of Belfast) and they quoted £350 for a b service - does this sound right?

:wag:
Although it does depend on the scope of what they are going to do outside of the B like brake fluid change etc. but for a B on it's own it's sounds about twice as much as it should be.
It is only plugs, air and oil filter and oil after all

What's it doing having a B at 7000miles, don't you do much miles in it ?

Re: Sound right?

trouble, you of all people should know servicing is once per year or 9000 miles, whichever comes soonest. A 2007 would be on its second service in 2009

Re: Sound right?

Hum, I'm thinking the same thing but no other choice.

The first owner had only done just over 7,000 miles in two years and I have just put over 350miles on it since I got it. With the first B service being at 18k? Or 2 years depending on what's soonest, my smart is telling me it's due its service at 7,900 miles..

Just making conversation:p whilst I stop laughing at the cost of that B

Yes Reedy , it needs a yearly service regardless of whether you achieve the mileage or not.

I got quoted that for a roadster B service (minus plug change) by Smart of Bolton a couple of years ago, needless to say i've never been back!!!

As Taz said, see an indie, there may be one in northern ireland, and Taz has made a suggestion, but try to make sure wherever you take it has a good reputation regarding smarts (ie they wont under/overfill the oil etc)
