Hi all
I had my first service carried out on time, on 13th Nov '17, at 11,300 miles. The second was carried out on 12th Nov '18 at 23,800 miles.
It's 30th October 2019, my car is at 35300 miles, and the service indicator has switched from telling me it's due soon to telling it's due now. I wasn't expectng this to happen until the 12th November or 36,300 miles.
Right now it's no problem, because I can ignore the indicator until my service (which is booked for the 12th Nov). But in one year's time I am handing this car back (on the 8th Nov, to be precise) and I don't particularly want to have to pay for the fourth service. The lease company have said that I do not have to have the car serviced as long as it's not indicating that a service is overdue.
So, I'm keen to understand why the service indicator is already on! Does it go on factors other than just milage and date?
Cheers
Jamie
