    Correct EXCEPT that services are at 15,000k intervals or every 12 months Whichever comes first. Both my cars have had their 60,000k service after 4 years but both have done less than 30,000km

    So what I couldnt care less what you do. I am retired and dont go out a lot. The point I am making that if you dont do a lot of K's you need to service it yearly regardless of usage. Obviously that fact escaped you.

    The OP asked what the intervals were and you were incorrect to a point You asked for correction. The OP may or may not do as many K's as you or as few as me so he deserves the correct information

    Read the service manual, thats what it says.

    I did not mean to offend you. I know what do you want to say. Important fact which i forgot to mention: 15 k or one year. I know that cos i do service twice per year.

    It's OK. I've given Hillbilly stick in the past for them giving advice for cars they don't even own (ie. Golf Mk7) and the advice was incorrect.

    They're retired, so just let them be...we'll be like them one day
