Independent garage servicing

I know recent EU rules have made it that you don't have to have main dealer services to maintain your warranty but anyone know what to look for in an indie garage so the manufacturer won't dispute service history. (Vauxhall).

Any direct experiences of warranty disputes as a result of this?

    What you need to do is have the vehicle serviced to the same schedule and using same specification parts as if you were going to the main dealer.

    It pretty much means going to a VAT registered garage and using genuine parts at the standard intevals.
