Hi,
I’m currently leasing a Seat (via vw financial) and it’s overdue it’s 2 year service. Does anyone know if I have to go to an official Seat dealership to get the service done or can go to a cheaper alternative? I can’t see any stipulation in my contract and struggling to speak to anyone to ask.
thanks

Might depend on your contract, bu you have to be sure that if you go to an independent that they use OEM parts.0

How "overdue"? It's normally up to a month or a thousand miles. Over that, you'll be in breach of your lease and have invalidated the warranty.
As for "who"... The car belongs to the lease company, they get to tell you who you need to service it. Get it done otherwise, and you may get charged on return. I'd be VERY surprised if a VAG lease didn't require a VAG dealer.0
