Servicing - Help!

[tartanmartin85]

Hi Guys,

I need some help interpreting my service schedule. Based on my schedule below, what service should I get next and when should it be? 

2/8/05 - Car Purchased
20/7/07 - 12634 miles - Oil Change & Interval Service, Inspection, Longlife Oil and Brake Fluid
24/7/09 - 29635 miles - Oil Change & Interval Service, Inspection, Longlife Oil, Spark plugs, Brake Fluid
17/8/10 - 35260 miles - Interval Service and Inspection
17/3/11 - 39560 miles - When I bought it - Oil Change Service, Insection, Cambelt Change (at my request)

Unfortunately the last two services haven't had the tick boxes done so the last time it was marked yes/no for the items was July '09.

Your help would be much appreciated. I am going to use a local Independent (Glasgow) instead of using these large chains who don't seem to care about filling the book out.

Cheers

Martin

If you have dsg then it too will need a service.

btw insist that they only use long life oil regardless of your service schedule.

Have you thought of putting it on this?

Includes 2 MOT’s in the price for £349.

Thanks guys, that's great!

With the service plan, if I do less than 10k per year would that give me my service now and one for the next 2 years (3 services inc first one now) or would the last one be this time next year?

I've actually done 44k in it now so should just retain the July/August schedule.....

with that plan you get 2 services, no more no less. It'll be either 2 in 2 years or 2 in less than 2 years because you've done 20k miles (10k + 10k).

Great, thanks for that!
