SEAT Servicing

[Swansway Motor Group (SEAT & CUPRA)]

We've been seeing a few SEAT owners recently unsure about when servicing is actually due - especially with newer cars and variable service intervals.

From our side, a lot of it comes down to how the car's being used day-to-day. Out of curiosity, how do you all approach servicing?
Do you stick strictly to the schedule, go by the car's alters, or just book it in when it "feels right"?

You can get servicing on your SEAT with us at Bolton SEAT. Enquire now!

Stick to the schedule personally.

In the days when I was doing 18 - 20k miles per annum in a tuned Skoda Yeti TDI 4x4, I'd stick to the Variable regime but, as my driving involved a fair bit of town plus 'fast road' work I would do an interim oil change at 9 - 10k miles.

These days in my Ateca VZ, I do fewer miles around 13 - 14k per annum, heavily biased to short journeys, and go by the book of the one year / 10k miles Fixed regime; with services bought on a Cupra plan.

My servicing depends on number of and use in track days,

As my oil filter is part of the external Racingline oil cooler the filter can be cleaned rather than replaced although I do also have spare filters just in case.

Double checking, is Seat Bolton open again? The postcode isn't correct on the website by the way...

Seat and Cupra in Bolton has moved from Perry's to Swansway.

They are currently operating from the Swansway Honda site on Folds Rd (Bolton BL1 2ST).

Depends on track days and hard driving, oil around every 3k or 6 months, plugs usually 12 months, intake filter gets a clean every quarter...

Heavily tuned so requires more attention

Fair enough, Scott. Makes sense to stick to the schedule if there's nothing immediate that needs fixing on your car!

It sounds like you look after your car well!

Nice! That sounds like a LOT of miles you covered in your Skoda Yeti! Either way, you definitely know how to maintain your vehicles well! If you didn't have a CUPRA Service Plan, do you reckon you'd still go to a main CUPRA dealer or go independent for any maintenance?

My Ateca VZ is just over a year old with a five year warranty so I'll stick with main dealer.

My preferred one only does SEAT / Cupra service now as switched to Renault / Dacia for sales a year ago (useful as my partner has a Jogger bought elsewhere) but I'll stick with them as they're nice folk; even though I have a full SEAT / Cupra slightly nearer.
