Service countdown

Post by Nodds » Wed Sep 05, 2007 7:58 pm

A few weeks back the 1000miles to service light came on then last week down to 500 miles then 200 and now service flashes up on startup i wouldn't mind, but i've done less than 400 miles !

This happened to anyone else ? :?

this will be due to time,rather than miles covered.

..and it would also depend on how hard you drove those 400 miles!

If you drove them like a man possessed (as you should of course*) then the 1,000 will count down very very quickly. If you drove like an old biddy then the 1,000 will count down slowly.

* Disclaimer ... I am in no way suggesting that owners should drive their vehicles recklessly, dangerously or exceed speed limits or speeds appropriate for the conditions.
