Well tomorrow I go in for my 40,000 mile service. Dealer says $589.80 before taxes for all required 40,000 mile work. Will try to post what that entails later in the week. Very happy with my 2013 TDI at this point. They called me a few days ago wanting to give me an offer for a trade in on a 2013 model. Not sure I want to go to a 2013 and extend my payments but who knows if the deal is good enough I might bite.

You could buy a VCDS, a Mityvac, and all the tools/fluids/bolts necessary to do the 40K yourself for that price. Just sayin' ;)

Whereabouts in the Midwest are you?

Just had my 40000 mile service done. Cost $375. I have a manual or it would have been over $800 for the dsg. Car was exactly 1 year old. They tried talking me into a passat. But only offering me $17000 for my car wasn't going to make that happen. I'm located in Chicago sub burbs.

Well the 40,000 mile service was $543.46 tax included.
They also verified that the diesel only stickers were on my car. Replaced seat linkage bolts seat frame screws on a recall and I finally let them replace the exhaust tips got tired of them asking every time I came in for service.
So I got the tires rotated, pollen filter replaced, fuel filter replaced, DSG Tranny service and oil change on the 40,000 mile service.

I was quoted $990 for the 40k service at a dealer near my workplace which is basically changing the DSG and engine oils, $360 for parts and $560 labor. Which I declined respectfully. What is reasonable amount to pay?

Thanks kjclow. That's about the same my original dealership quoted so I am going there. The only problem is that they are 40 miles out of of town with no public transport so I essentially have to stay there for the best part of the day. thanks for reminding me to use the goodwill loyalty card. I had totally forgotten about it.

Our local dealership told me the 40,000k is on special (taxes included) for the $500 dealers goodwill card. Sounded ok to me considering I have the dsg and it's in Cdn funds.

So the total came out around $790 which included engine oil and transmission fluid changes as well as brake system flush. Minus 15% discount, I surrendered my $500 loyalty card plus some $170.

That was 2012. I paid $538 for the 80k service in December. Just after the goodwill cards were received. That includes the DSG service.
