Evo Servicing?

[Kieran-Evo8]

hey everyone

just wondering after how many miles should you get a service done?

i get told all different some say 3000miles some say 6000miles

thanks

5000 would be fine.. i think people pushing high power do it every 3000.. 420bhp +

 

[B6lee]

Service interval is 4500miles

 

[B6lee]

Or 6 months

 

[Billy MR]

Every 6-7 months without fail on my mr

 

[Kieran-Evo8]

thanks for the fast replies lads, mine is apparently 420bhp, but i thought every 3000miles is a bit too quick as this is my everyday car, i know this is a question that will be always different but any ideas how much a service costs?

 

[Billy MR]

Including decent oils around 200

oh thats not too bad at all, cheers Billy! but what do u recommend on miles due to mine been 420bhp?

 

[Billy MR]

Do you know for a fact it's 420bhp ? Sounds like it's on the limit if it is 420bhp
Mine was over 400bhp and it was done every 6-7 months as I didn't use it much

no i dont know for a fact just off his word but its going in for a power run on the rolling roads at r s tuning in leeds near me to confirm what it is running at.

mine is a everyday car so would u recommend getting it serviced every 4000miles? its also had all new pulley belts fitted so do you know how many miles it is until u change them?

 

[Billy MR]

60k until you change the belts or 4 year

Every 4500 I'd say

awesome, thanks for your help buddy much appreciated

 

[mart1983]

Or 6 months

every 6 months? :shock:

 

[mart1983]

we talking minor or major service here?

 

[Billy MR]

Hey mart, on my car I was servicing every 6-7 months and that was everything
I didn't need to but I just had it done

I think it's everything then next is just engine then every other

 

[mart1983]

ok, i mean i wouldn't change everything every 6 months! i don't do the miles for it for one and it would only be oil and filter change if i was going to do it.. i think a major service once a year would be fine?

 

[B6lee]

60k until you change the belts or 4 year

Every 4500 I'd say

45k 5 years for belt change

 

[B6lee]

[mart1983]
