BaronWard 
10 Before buying a car, we must pay primary attention to the reputation, appearance, performance and price of the vehicle brand. After buying a car, we should pay most attention to the cost of using the car. Fuel truck is basically the cost of refueling, insurance and daily maintenance costs of these three parts, using the car for four years, today I will talk to you about the routine maintenance project expenditure of the armour I use.
My car in use is the 2019 280TSI comfortable version. The car has been driven 39800 kilometers since the beginning of 2020. As a SUV model, the performance of the car is good, there is no problem at present, and it has something to do with me coming to the store on time for professional maintenance. After nearly four years of using the car, my vehicle has been routinely maintained five times. According to the requirements of the manufacturer, the use of all-synthetic oil is maintained every 10,000 kilometers or one year, except that the first guarantee is to drive to 3,000 kilometers. The rest of the routine maintenance is basically carried out to about 9,000 kilometers.
My vehicle is a 1.4T turbocharged model, EA211-DJS engine I use full synthetic oil, the annual mileage is basically about 10,000 kilometers, so the vehicle needs to be routinely maintained once a year, maintenance items include the replacement of oil, oil filter element, oil bottom bolts, gaskets, air conditioning filter element, air filter element.
Since the purchase of the car, the maintenance of the vehicle is carried out in the SAIC-Volkswagen 4s store. The following prices are in-store prices for recent maintenance:
4L Suisheng brand choice of 5W-30 full synthetic engine oil, the price is 480yuan.
The price of the original oil filter element is 51.67 yuan, while replacing the oil bottom screw is 15.63 yuan, and the sealing ring is 12.88 yuan, totaling 80.18 yuan.
The price of the original air filter element is 73.71 yuan.
The man-hour fee in the store is 224 yuan.
The total cost of the above is 857.89 yuan
Note: the original factory PM2.5 air conditioner filter element store price 128yuan, before the replacement man-hour cost 58 yuan, the scene looked at the operation is not complicated, the latter several maintenance in the store to buy their own installation, if you include this project, the cost of a single routine maintenance is 1043.89, to be honest, it is not cheap.

When it comes to the price of the regular 4s store is not cheap, the reason why I still choose to maintain the car in the store in the past four years is that the senior technicians in the store will have a better understanding of the relevant models after the training of the manufacturers. in particular, the common problems of vehicles can be targeted for maintenance, which is also time-saving and labor-saving for car owners. Coupled with the use of the original factory accessories, the maintenance quality will be more guaranteed. And the whole car will be inspected in the process of maintenance, which I value very much. Then there is in-store support for booking, eliminating the trouble of waiting in line, providing tea and meals for a long time in the process of maintenance, which can not be enjoyed outside the store.
The last thing I want to say to my car friends is to pay more attention to the maintenance packages offered by manufacturers and stores, and to have the opportunity to store a few more tickets can save themselves a considerable amount of money. If you often go to the 4s store for maintenance, you can also apply for a membership card, and each store has a corresponding man-hour discount for the membership level. Pay more attention to the preferential activities of manufacturers, vulnerable parts will regularly issue coupons, such as air-conditioning filter element, air filter element this kind of operation is relatively simple to replace, you can use the discount price to buy their own replacement, but also save the relevant man-hour costs. Know more about your own vehicles, communicate more among your friends, don’t just listen to the reception staff when you go to the store, and maintain the vehicles timely and appropriately to avoid unnecessary expenses.
