|  60k service costs? Just been looking into booking my Fabia 1.9TDi in for its 60k service. Any idea what sort of money I should be expecting to pay for this service? 60k on the TDI includes cambelt change. Thanks, Chris

| Did Jason not post something on this when he went to get 60k service on his Fabia a while back? Might be worth a search.

| Thanks - when it doubt, search  Didn't find Jason's post but found Denis' link to the Malborough garage in London who should be top price for the work .... quote I got from a local dealer was 60 quid more than that  Think I will be looking slightly further afield then Chris

| If you know your dealer's hourly rate for labour, you could get an idea from the following link: http://www.skoda.co.uk/skoda3g/conte...a/fabiasmr.xls According to that info, at 60K the car has a 20K inspection (£157.44) and a cam belt change (£137.81). Those figures are based on a labour cost of £50 an hour and exclude VAT. That comes to £346.92 with VAT compared with Marlborough Skoda's listed service charge of £379.33. Doubtless there are much cheaper hourly rates for labour out there.

), what are you security settings set to. I get the message saying that a macro is a high-risk threat and is not signed, etc so will not be run. You can get round this by lowering your security settings (Tools->Macro->Security and set to Medium which asks whether you want to run the macros)  Chris
