Service Issues: - Service - what to do?

marcb · Mar 20th, 2015, 19:58

MOT is due next week and I usually get the car serviced at the same time at the local Volvo indy.

It's a 2005 2.5T. Last year it had a major service including timing belt. It's done about 8000 miles since then and is now on more than 90,000. I'm not sure what actually should be done apart from an oil change?

Car is running well although I think the brakes need attention - they have done 18,000 miles from last pads/disks change and most is town driving. Brake fluid was changed last year.

If the air and fuel filter, coolant and plugs have been changed recently (hopefully as part of the major service), it should just be an oil change

Your local indy will be able to advise what is due now but it does sound like oil and filter will be probably be about right.
