Default Bugeye STi Servicing Question

hi guys

just looking through the history and was noting down dates for the next service and maintenance etc,

anyway

is this the correct scooby maintenance schedule?

Service Intervals

Months Miles
Cambelt -- 36 -- 45,000
Fuel Filter -- 24 -- 30,000
Air Filter -- 24 -- 30,000
Gearbox oil -- 24 -- 30,000
Diff oil -- 24 -- 30,000
Engine oil / filter -- 6 -- 7,500
Brake fluid -- 24 -- 30,000
Spark Plugs -- 12 -- 15,000
Coolant -- 24 -- 30,000

if this is correct then i have quite a bit due not by mileage but by months.

timing belt needs doing as 36 months have passed , so what else needs or should be done at same time?

fuel filter, no record of this being done..

air filter is due, 24 months have just gone by..
same with spark plugs

coolant and brake fluid.. no record of this either..
so this needs to be done too.

with regards to this what does it mean? check fluid and top up? orflush system and put new fluid in?

cheers

Looks like your due all fluids, plugs, air filter and cambelt, wont be a cheap one but I would do this anyway (and do) when I buy a new (used) car, that puts you back to step 1 and you know where you are then

true, i did the diff and gear and engine oils myself even thought they didnt need doing, just for peice of mind, will get it booked in asap for the rest.

would waterpump need doing with timing belt?

and the fluids i take it , it means drain and refill?

if anyone has links for the service parts or names of them, that would be good, as i'll but them and supply parts to the garage

cheers
