Early servicing

[Matt W]

My 200 is currently on 10,500 miles and the first service is due at 12k.
I won't be able to get it to 12k before I go on a europe trip and would much prefer the service to be done earlier rather than later.

I'm on the 4+ thingy so servicing is free, and was wondering what the chances will be of them doing it early? I have a feeling this will also be a hassle!

I'd just take it in an explain the situation, I'm sure they wouldn't be THAT strict, just obviously it'll count as the 12k service?

I'd just replace the oil yourself for peace of mind, £25 for 5L +1L top up of Elf oil. £5 for an oil filter. Job done.

fresh oil on your free service then once you've come back from the trip and the cars had a hammering.

 

[Matt W]

Changed the oil myself at 6k

I'm worried that because the next service would end up being at 13ish k then this would effect warranty work.

Yes, but this is Renault we are talking about....

 

[Foxspeed]

its better done early than late as said for warranty reasons...

only way to find out is to ask!

Your not doing too bad on mileage either Matt! Catching me up.. Lol

I had my first included service (I had a service package prior to 4+) at 7000 miles and 9 months old due to work commitments, they don't bat an eyelid

I just serviced my 133 and changed the spark plugs. Mines ment to be serviced every 12k or 24 months

 

[smoggy mark]

Had my first service done at 10.5k at ponti Renault no probs,I would just get it done before you go.

[Matt W]
