Hi,

I was quoted 160€ for my Citroen C4 Cactus, to change the oil and filter, also the air and pollen filters. I ordered the parts off Amazon for 55€ delivered two days later. The fully synthetic oil bought locally was another 21€. I changed them myself, don’t you just love YouTube. Hope this...

Andrew

Thats fine but this cant be entered into the service history which has to be stamped by a recognised garage.

You should get services entered no matter who you use - it only matters about using an authorised dealer if there is a manufacturers' warranty to maintain. A full service history is what is important.
