I was told by the dealership that my 2011 clio 200 is on a 2yr/12k miles service interval - i checked when i got it home with them and had them do a health check and they said it didnt need servicing
the car when i bought it had been serviced 5000 miles ago and i was told to wait until the dash said it needed doing basically or september 2014 if i didnt reach 24000 miles as it was done at 12000 miles in sept 2012.
i serviced the car myself when i got it home anyway for my own benefit, new oil and filter, cabin filter, air filter, gearbox oild and brake fluid all done
i intended on doing an interim service myself every few months/few thousand miles and let the dealers do it when renault suggest to keep the warranty legit.
the car is doing a trackday every few weeks so I'm keeping on top of the servicing anyway but i like to do things myself.
anyway... just got a letter form the same dealer saying it is due a service in september and to ring them to book up (the car will be 2 years old in september) - i was told it would be 2yr from its last service or 12k miles though, so it shouldnt be due.
i have oil and a filter for it anyway so would only have to pay for labour but dont know whether to let them do it, even though i only serviced it 1700 miles ago myself or argue that they told me i was on a 2 year servicing plan.
what do anyone else think?
personally i dont think its due a dealer service until 2yr/12k miles has passed since its first service was done.
