my classic uk turbo has just clocked 60k and im going to do the service myself.

does anyone know what needs to be changed/checked at this service?

cheers

 

if its a 00 classic it will need a cambelt change, and usual oil change and filter change anything else depends on the car

 

I've had this service done on my Classic a MY00 T2000. It's a major service which includes changing diff and gearbox oil along with all the other oils and filters. Cambelt is done aswell and cost at a main dealer for this service should be about £400.

 

cheers guys, its a MY97 car, and the c/belt was done at 45k

 

Take a look at graham goodes site, you'll find a service schedule.

Classic cambelts are done at 45k and 90k, aren't they?

 

mine was done at 45k by subaru in surrey according to the handbook, is there anyway i can verify this under the bonnet atall?

 

I've no idea, apart from general condition of the belt. Do you have the invoice for the work as well as the service booklet stamp? If you do then I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

By the way, service intervals happen at certain mileages or EVERY SIX MONTHS, whichever comes first.

 

He said he'd had the cambelt done at 45K bubba !!

unfortuatly not i dont think just the stamp, with cambelt written over the top of it, but it was supplied and maintained by surrey subaru up until about 55k so ive no real reason to suspect any different, i just need to check the fluids and replace the filters then for 60k?

will it be worth putting a K+N filter as oppose to a new air filter if im doing it anyway?

 

Yes, but other posters have said it was due at 60k, which is wrong, AFAIK.

 

He ought to be having the 127,500 mile service, by now.

 

just checked the history and the last service was at 55k, on the 05/07/05, 16 MONTHS ago!!! even though its less that 5k in that time, ill think ill do it next week

 

Argh, sorry bud !!

Your right though, it's at 45k.

Rob

 

MY00 is 60K for the cambelt (guess the MY99 would be to )
Pre- MY00 (or 99) 45K

 

If by check you mean change then yes.

Stick with the standard air-filter wise. The oil in the K&N can monkey with the MAF and it does not add much in any case.

 

yeah i did mean change lol. its going to be off the road until the end of the year anyway

would something like a green panel filter be a better move than a k+n then?

Classics pre MY00.
Service every 7.5K miles or 6 months, whichever first.
Cambelt, 45K miles or 3 years, whichever first.
Plus, cambelt tensioner might need renewing, £ouch.
Possibly because the right procedure for compressing the tensioner has not been followed, even by main dealers.
If it's standard, keep it standard.
Look at 'plugs, if ok at least regap.
Fuel filter?
