    Default Can service intervals be changed? Mines every 10k.

    Folks,

    I am wondering if the Service Intervals on the Vec-C CDTI 150 can be changed?

    My dad's CDTI 150 on a 55-reg Facelift is stupuidly every 10k miles. It comes up with Insp 1000 every 10k miles and I have been having it done.

    The car has 30k on it and has been serviced 3 times.

    Im just wondering that shouldnt this car be on a 20k service interval? If so, how can this be switched over?

    Thanks.

    should only be on 10k if it has a dpf, although it would be silly to leave it 20k as the oil is shot by then.

    As above - you're doing it no harm at all by changing the oil more often. I used to do mine every 5K on my 1.9 150...

    Vehicle : Vectra C Hatchback Facelift

    Trim : Club

    Engine : Z18XE

    Year : 2005

    Mileage : 100085

    Default

    In process of doing the service myself this year and b****r the dealer stamp.
    Its a 55reg 1.8 Facelift with theZ18XE petrol and 38K on the clock...I say this after Local Vx dealer Bristol Street Motors serviced it last year...
    They rang me to tell me a service was due and the price..I haggled and got it down a fair bit. They omitted various things agreed at the time I haggled and put Helix 10W40 Engine oil in, not GM LL...and tried to tell me it was really 5W/30.....When they rang me this year I said no thanks and decided to do it myself...I'm no spring chicken @ 69+ but so far so good...worst job is the fuel filter which I plan to tackle over the weekend...cheers

    From what I can see ECO Service is 20K miles / 1 year on this engine
    Have a look at the front section of the service book
    It was 20K miles when the engine was first introduced and still 20K miles up to MY2005
