GT 60k miles service

[waitey]

Hi all my GT is up for a regular service interval, I'm thinking it may be cheaper to buy the parts myself and get someone else to do it.

Does anyone know the cost of all the parts needed for a standard service and how much it should cost?

I am also going to get my braided brake lines fitted also so might update the brake fluid , what fluid is an upgrade and suitable?

all prices from Renault Parts Direct...
Oil - £30 for Elf Evo SXR (5 litres)
Oil Filter - £9.16
Air Filter - £14.18
Cabin Filter - £18.26
Spark Plugs - £26.50
if its a 57 plate or older add £170 for Cambelt kit, Aux belt kit and Water pump.

if you go to a motor factors you can do it cheaper as your not using genuine renault parts so say £30 for your oil, £5 for your filter, £20 for both your cabin and air filter, £20 for your plugs (although make sure they are definately the correct NKG part number) then £100-£120 for pump and both belt kits.

Id consider a K-tec pannel filter though if you are currently running the standard setup, not a bad price at £30 odd quid and lifetime warranty, re usable at service time and a nice extra bit of grunt low down
