I had my first annual service today and they noticed that both left and right drive shaft oil seals are leaking. They didn’t have new seals in stock so I have to take my car back to the dealer in a week or so. Has anyone else had this problem? My car is a T3.

A pleasant surprise was that the service did cost only 143 €.

only 143? in which country?

In Finland, where car maintenance in general is quite expensive.

Service included the necessary checks, oil change + filter and software update.

I was surprised because since 2002 when my father bought the S60 2.0T every service (even for the necessary things) is quite expensive (200-300E) in Greece

So I expect that for my V40 I will have to pay 250 Euros for the 1st service. I have 7 months time to search for something cheaper.

First service at dealer, no more than 175 euros.
