This service indicator thing-a-me confused me when I moved up from the P38. My truck is an 07 TDV8 and in the service book it says that the car should be serviced according to the service indicator coming on and nothing else. A call to Land Rover (not the dealer but the 110 110 cust no) confirmed it is not in any way linked to mileage or age, just how the car is driven, and nothing needs doing until the car asks for it.

My '08 TDV8 has just popped up a warning (when I turned the ignition on) to tell me I have an oil inspection due in 590 miles.

Possibly it wasn't due a service in April , although you maybe thought it was by keeping it to a 12 monthly cycle ...

probably already been said, but I was told the choice to service the car comes from the computer watching the fuel consumption. Am not sure if that is correct though. |
