Don't know about your manual but mine says service at 9K or 12 months...

Aye, Well the version I got really only refers you on page 176 for EU models to follow the seperate service book supplied with your car,!!!!!

So I now go and check that out (basically the book they stamp with PDI schedule in) and that offers more varying advice for harsh driving where section A & C would probably cover harsh for me! So now the oil is to be changed every 4,500 miles / 6 months, GOD damn it, they have small print all over the place if you blow your engine up!!

I'll stick to this from now on, I can't find the other harsh gimp I was on about, I know the Americans refer to it (and they only get 3 years , 36,000 miles warranty!!) but I'm sure I read it in my documents somewhere!!
