Hello,

Could anyone kindly advise what's included in a 2 year service i.e what items are checked / changed. The reason being I don't want to pay the prices Fords are charging and I should like to get the 2 year service done at a garage that will issue an invoice saying genuine Ford parts used.

I also looked at the garages in the good garages link , provided. I saw one or two that I liked but as is always the case I saw good and bad reviews and that concerned me.

If I have posted in the wrong area, I apologise

I'm very grateful to you for providing what's done/needs to be done and for providing the labour items too. I will check them closely and also print it all.

Thank you too for advising me what Fords provide. I'm pretty sure my son already has roadside assistance, within his car insurance . I guess that's why Fords charge a premium price too. You get what you pay for, they say. I understand that the 2 year service even if the mileage hasn't been done is a scheduled service. I see that quite a few garages ( non Ford) say  "full service" or "major service" ; the prices are different.
