Hi
Not true. You can have it serviced anywhere and still keep the warranty provided they use genuine Vauxhall parts.

Yes, I know that, but if something did go wrong then you might have the hassle of dealer questioning the non dealer work and your stuck in the middle, there are posts on here about this. If you stick with the dealer then there's no questions, usually.
Thank you very much,
Gordon

Servicing is the biggest rip off ever when i got my 2016 astra from a local garage it had been stamped at a main dealer 3 times so it was up to date from new i always service my own cars so did it the oil and all the filters were black black service intervals are to sell the car I always change oil and filters once every 6 months genuine parts and oil used never had a mechanical engine problem in any of my vauxhalls look after them they look after you and i just did my astra for about 140 for parts.
