I've booked my first service for 2 weeks from now but I'm worried that I will overshoot the 1K by then. Robinsons in Rochdale said it doesn't matter if it is a couple of hundred over.

Anyone know what effect this could have on Warrenty etc and how high can I take it over - 1,500 ?

I think somewhere it states that service must be within 1000 miles of the interval, doesn't differentiate between different intervals.

Mine was at 1600, no probs.

When I checked with my dealer he said it was 500 miles or 3 months.

The first Scoob we bought second hand. It had exceeded the service mileage, don't remember by how much but it must have been significant cos:-

I rang Listers, the supplying/servicng dealer who said no probs. Contacted Subaru UK who agreed and faxed a statement to confirm that it would not affect any warranty claims. (Didn't have opportunity to test that as in three years ownership there wasn't a single problem)

Six monthly service intervals, I am assured have a thirty day limit. Dealers slotted it in first thing Christmas Eve to maintain the warranty.

PS Our car was a couple of hundred over the 1k, serviced seven days after collecting it!
