The main thing seems to be that the services need to be done at least once a year even if the mileage hasn't been reached. So it's yr1 = 10K inter, yr2 = 20K major, yr3 = 10K inter, etc.The 4.3 may be different mileage periods but I'd have thought that an annual service was still mandatory.

You now due an intermediate, and six months late getting it done.[unless you want to go straight to the next major - six months early?] Quote Link to post Share on other sites
