Hey Guest👍👎 We're looking for reviews of your local CUPRA or SEAT Dealership - it's quick and easy to do: Leave a review now
Not sure about the FR's but my 140 tdi sport needed 3 filters (air, fuel and oil) and an oil change (40k service). Parts cost me £37 from local seat dealership, local vat registered mechanic done it all for £45 all in 
Would have cost £150 + vat from seat with parts all in, saved myself £102 by going elsewhere but still keeping my warranty as I used seat parts and a vat registered mechanic to do the fitting.

Well, I just got quoted £290 inc VAT for this... I'm thinking that's a bit excessive!!!
lol ask them to get you a breakdown of that figure, I done the same, total was £150 + vat, that was £37 for parts and the rest labour but then I asked what they charge for labour and it was £55 +vat per hour lol roll on seat

If you drive an FR, then you have to use something known as 507.00 oil, which is quite dear but is approved for use with a DPF........do NOT use anything less....at your peril!! - Hence £62 for oil!
I recommend you visit your dealership and ask them to quote you!
Remember parts and labour times will be sold at set prices but Dealers labour rates vary quite dramatically according to location!! The Dealers should be able to compile you a comprehensive and competitivequote!!

Ted Johnson in Barnsley have been very good. I have had two services on my 57FRTDI, each costing me around £130 inc vat and parts. Go to the website and register with them to get a further 10% discount as well.

I go to the Ted Johnson one too and they are very good prices. Like Mike said the first 2 were under £130 and you get a upgraded courtesy car whilst yours is in if you wish. It depends what model year your car is tho I think 07 and above get them cheaper as there is less involved in the service.
Update for this post.
Just booked 40K service (already) for my 57 Leon FRTDI with Ted Johnson Seat in Barnsley and including 10% Seatcupra.net discount, total cost will be £175 inc vat and all parts (inc pollen filter).
Also got a quote from JCT Seat in Wakefield (new dealer) just to check prices and they quoted me £260, stating that I needed an air filter and diesel filter change as well. Just looked in my book on that and looks like these guys are trying to pull a fast one on me (unless you guys know otherwise).
So, sticking with Ted J, who have always had good prices and top quality service.

Are you sure the Cambelt is at 40k?
I thought it was 60 or 80 - I haven't got my service book to hand to check.....
As NickP - Dont have log book to hand, but I understood cambelt was at 80k? Will check tonight.
