Servicing an E2008 without being ripped off - advice please
I need to book a two-year service for my 24MY Peugeot E2008 and Stellantis have been trying for a couple of weeks to get me to book it in with them, but it's £282 or thereabouts.
When they called again today, I asked over the phone for a service schedule because it sounds very expensive and she reeled off a list of things they check. I think the only thing they might change (or top up) is coolant. She was making a big deal of checking suspension, brake discs and pads. Suspension, sure, but brakes? There are also checks for the battery and cables etc.
Am I supposed to be happy to pay nearly £300, which may or may not be the same cost as servicing an ICE 2008, when by her own admission they are pretty much visually checking things and nothing more. It's a service, not an MOT!
Perhaps they might plug in to do a software update, but can't this be done over-the-air? (I've had one update OTA but to be honest I don't know what it did as there was no changelog).
It's my first EV and I am sure other EV owners talk of paying between £60-150, so I am looking for advice - especially any specific places I could look at going to instead (living in south Hertfordshire).
What do other people do with their EVs?
