Re: 4th service cost

Just had the 4th service carried out on my 2018 CX3. £404 including a MOT. How does that sound?? I've also been quoted a package price of £708 for future 5th and 6th services.

Re: Replacing Serpentine belt

Just looked on YouTube and there seems to be two belts. Crank pulley driving Alternator etc. The other belt drives the water pump. Think the video shown is the MX5 so don't know if our cars are the same, But have a look
