I just dropped off my 2003 Jetta TDI at VW for the 10,000 mile service. I was quoted $165.00. Does that sound right to others? Is it allot more because of the TDI?

Compare the manufacturers recommended service schedule in the book in the glove compartment with the list the dealer gives you of what they propose to do. Usually the dealer adds stuff that may not needed to be done.

Sounds a high. Been two years since I had a 10k done but it was about $80.
"I'd suggest you check out tdiclub.com for info on your TDI. I'm not mechanical at all but I've learned to do most of the basic maintenance myself. Just a suggestion.

May need a touch more than 4 quarts oil total, but 4 quarts usually puts mine right on the mark.
And I second the thought about

If Numan's dealer gets $165 for an oil change ... I'd hate to see the quote for the timing belt.
