    Ryan that service interval on the diesel seems very high.

    One of the biggest thing with fuel economy is how you drive.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    Have seen intervals of 20 000km from Citroën in their HDi models. Just for shits and giggles I phoned Giltrap Volkswagen and enquired about the interval for a 2004 Golf 2.0 TDi. 15 000km or 12 months whichever comes first was the reply.

    Service interval on my amarok is 20,000km and 15 is pretty common now on newer vehicles. Not totally sure its for the better though.
