Many thanks I didnt need to flush it in the end, the levers werent doing their job opening the flap but I fixed it and now I cant believe how hot the heater is, proper roasting! thanks

The heater on my 300tdi is blowing cold air so after reading up I plan to see if the the cables need adjusting/are working and also flush the heater matrix. One question which I cant seem to find the answer to, and apologies as im no mechanic Do i need to drain the coolant system or clamp...

described as 12000 mile service, Oil and air filter changed, new engine oil, no work on brakes, im not an expert so cant remember the exact terms he used but basically he did say they oiled and checked everything. I was expecting to pay about 250-300

Hi guys, I was just wondering how much you should normally expect to pay for a yearly service an a 300tdi? I recently had mine done at a small 4x4 specialists (thinking it was cheaper) and was charged over £450 which to me seems a hell of alot considering the amount we pay on our other cars...
