Nissan service vs Bosch Service Centre
Posted: 06 Aug 2018 10:04
Hi Guys,
My Patrol ZD30 has a complete Nissan franchise service histiry. I need to do my 120 000 km service now, which I know is the major service as the diffs, gearbox and transfer-case oil needs changing as well as all filters. Nissan in Kimberley has quoted me 15K. That's a lot of money. Bosch charged me 8K for the same service.
I've always tried to keep my truck at Nissan, feeling safer with it in their hands. Do you guys believe that Bosch is safe, given the price difference.
My fear is that service centres rarely sees a Patrol in their workshop. It is not a common vehicle in which technicians are well versed and experienced.
Please let me know what you guys think.
Regards
Johann
