My last one was serviced at an S dealer and there was no mention of the aircon being serviced. Mind you I wasn't paying so perhaps they knew the con wouldn't work. TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone

AC wont need servicing for the first few years - it may need 'checking' for damage, leaks etc however does not need servicing as part of a maintenance program

And as far as I know there is nothing to drain, it drains all the time and they won't drain the gas itself

All they will do is put a can of air con cleaner through the system, something you can do yourself for £10 in 5 minutes

First I've heard of it... surely the "first service" is a standard set of actions pre-described by LR?

Mrs S's FL is also due a service and it amazes me that it has always been more expensive to service her car than when I had the RRS. I could get the RRS serviced for £320, yet the same dealer would quote nearly £500 for the FL Time to get on the phone again.

£320 seams to be about the standard first service price but some owners on Disco3 have posted paying just over half that at LR dealers

Can we not say the S word for some reason??

so ive heard mate  

Got mine monday with 12 k on the clock, rang stratstone bushbury, wolverhampton and was quoted an 'all-inclusive' price of £330 for the 15,000 mile service.

What the f**k do they do for £330!

First service on my BMW was £140 Best Wishes
