Default Which Service ?

Wifey needs to get the Jazz serviced but we're all out of sequence. So as expected I'm being asked to get everything back on track...

here's what's been done so far....Car was purchased 26/10/2007

Schedule
Miles Months Date
12500 12 25/10/2008
25000 24 25/10/2009
37500 36 25/10/2010
50000 48 25/10/2011
62500 60 24/10/2012
75000 72 24/10/2013

Done
Miles Months
10362 16/06/2008 OK to here
25505 27/06/2009 OK here
37165 20/03/2010 OK here
45671 27/10/2010 5000 miles too early !
56178 13/10/2011 NOT A HONDA DEALER SERVICE but seem to have done more than Honda would have done



Current mileage is 65,000

So what comes next ??? - Honda dealer think it's the 75,000 one (which happens to be an expensive one ).
I personally think we should have the 62500 one done again as its only just over the mileage and well within the number of months schedule.

What does everyone else think.

Are Honda trying to pull a fast one here ?

and I aplogise if your struggling to unravel this...the forum doesnt seem to deal with tabularised stuff very well

The 75k, but take it to TGM at Fleet or a specialist. I wouldn't worry about Honda service history on a Jazz personally.

Is the cambelt six or seven years on a Jizz?

That's basically your answer - your car's not there yet.

The GD1 doesn't have a cam belt; it's got a cam chain

Ok - 75K it is then. Have got a fixed price much less than Honda need from a local garage that comes well recommended. Only thing is that they wont use all OEM parts. but they say they follow the service sheet.

I agree with gbduo in that as long as it has a service history I'm not that worried if its not a genuine Honda one.
I think we only have one body panel without a dent or deep scratch in it so I dont think it will be mega bucks on the second hand market.
