Routine service items

These are the items covered in a standard service. Most garages include oil, oil filter and a basic inspection. The rest are typically checked or replaced on a schedule.

Service item	Interval	Typical cost
Engine oil and filter Manufacturer interval 7,500 miles or 6 months. Use 5W-30 or 10W-40 grade oil. Change filter with every oil change. Missing this service leads to accelerated engine wear. RH	7,500 miles or 6 months	£45–£65 Dealer: £80–£120
Air filter Replace every 15,000 miles or annually. Check more frequently in dusty conditions. Blocked filter reduces performance and increases fuel consumption. RH	15,000 miles or 1 year	£15–£25 Dealer: £25–£40

Periodic maintenance

Items that don't need doing at every service but should be on your radar at the right mileage or age.

Service item	Interval	Typical cost
Spark plugs Replace every 30,000 miles. Use NGK or equivalent specified plugs. Worn plugs cause misfiring, poor fuel economy, and catalyst damage. RH	30,000 miles or 2 years	£60–£90 Dealer: £100–£140
Auxiliary belt Replace belt and tensioner together every 60,000 miles. Check for cracking or fraying annually. Belt failure causes loss of alternator, power steering and cooling. RH	60,000 miles or 4 years	£80–£120 Dealer: £120–£180
Brake fluid Replace every 2 years regardless of mileage. Use DOT 4 specification fluid only. Old fluid absorbs moisture causing brake failure and corrosion. RH	2 years	£45–£70 Dealer: £70–£100
Coolant flush Flush cooling system every 60,000 miles or 4 years. Use long-life antifreeze to manufacturer specification. Old coolant causes radiator and water pump corrosion. RH	60,000 miles or 4 years	£60–£90 Dealer: £90–£130
