Thread: td5 100K service

lol! As long as you're paying, I've got no doubt that they'll change anything you want.

probably the same?

cheers

I would assume the same, its just an old sheet. The 01 is still basically the same motor. Later there were some minor changes, though I would expect that none of them have altered the servicing.

thats a bit hit and miss but its about everything I check on a 100K Km service
theres some things that I havent mentioned like fixing leaks, changing shockies over and conducting a road test but that should give you an idea.

Done properly the 100K Km service should take 1 man 3 days to do properly or if you want the quicky Mk1 eyeball and change the easy stuff about a full 8 hour day going flat out the whole time.

Your just a ray of sunshine aren't you Dave!

Oh, I just found the last service sheets, done at 71K. I have attached these since I am a bit concerned about some of the things done. However does it not also mean that since they were done at 71K that I don't have to do them again at 100K?

Sorry guys, those attachements are a little hard to read now after uploading, don't know why....

Here's pg 2 again, not even I could read the first upload.

Last try, page 2 broken into two pics, otherwise I'll type the list up...!!

maybe you got checked & changed glow plugs

petrol seems to get more air filter changes than diesel?

i thought diesels usually use more air?

I also notice that the Engine oil is a synthetic 5w/40 @ $12.83 per ltr (see pg 2). I have seen a Penrite HPR Diesel 5w/40 for $68 for 10 liters.

What other oils (brands), are others using?
