Hi there, can anybody answer me how often services should appear on the service log? Is it just on the miles done or also on time? I have seen a service gap of 2.5 years, very low miles between services but all the same it sounds wrong. Is it wrong or is that acceptable?

Thanks :thumbs:

Its worked out on fuel used,usually about 10k-14k miles.depending how hard you drive,if you dont do many miles then you should have a service every 2 years.:thumbs:

check if there was a change of ownership, dealer maybe serviced the car before due date at time of sale
