Service intervals

Officially every 10,000 miles or two years, whichever comes first, but for best performanc­e and longest component life it is recommende­d that these intervals are halved.

Cambelt

The official recommenda­tion is to renew every 80,000 miles, but we advise erring on the side of caution and renewing it earlier.

Type: Recommende­d 5W-40 multigrade suitable for diesel engines (see handbook). Capacity: 4.75 litres.

Air filter and diesel fuel filter

The official recommenda­tion is to renew every 20,000 miles, but our advice is to change them twice as often.
