Not new but new to us turned up this week replacing a smaller version we’ve had for 16 years hopefully this one last as long
Currently its estimating 1st service in 3600 miles time with the miles done 15690Is it doing a fuel burn calculation?
Is it giving you a service km and thats variable?
Fuel burn gives this sort of variation, planners hate it.

The service book says 18,000 miles, looks like i will get another 1000 miles out of it, previous car was similar and went to 85,000 without issue before being traded in.Close to 20k mile services.. f that my friend...it will be fuel burn calc.
With no sampling i wouldnt exceed 10k kms...even when they recommend 15k, so many new donks blow up...and timing chain is the achillies heel of many engines.. which you are chasing lubricity on a different level to engine.

Serviced to manufacturer's recommendations and keeps warranty intact... so what is the problem?Pity the next person owning that, throw away.

Don’t take any notice at all. I have a neighbour who ran a freelander 2 and never did service it he’s only recently let it go due to corrosion. There’s a happy medium to be had. I wait for the light to come on and then just do it as like you say; manufacturer ought to know best. Maybe 50 years ago when oils were pretty poor it would have been a different story.Serviced to manufacturer's recommendations and keeps warranty intact... so what is the problem?
Transits with same engine go for 25,000 or 30,000 and will end up with very high miles, so cannot be much of an issue.
Have imported the header ? not be easy to find them second handNot new, but new to me. Hopefully an improvement on the old Vario.

Looks to be some big improvements in the 20 yr old chicken house,Not that easy to show in a picture but a complete refit and extension of a 20 year old chicken shed. Hens seem happy with it, shame to have coated it all with mite powder to take the shine off!View attachment 1154919View attachment 1154920View attachment 1154917View attachment 1154918

How long do you think the mite powder will last in a multi tier system? We need to try and do something different at turnaround this time relying on exzolt is no goodNot that easy to show in a picture but a complete refit and extension of a 20 year old chicken shed.
