@andy2019, brake fluid every 2 years? Someone told me not to worry about it, it lasts a lifetime 🙂
I'm guessing that's not quite right. Dumb question: what happens if one does not replace brake fluid?
I had a seized caliper on my motorbike

@gloucester the information in your posts is worth a few gold nuggets. Thank you.
I'll add drive belt inspection to the list.
Brake fluid - think needs done definitely.
The new PDF link is much better - I can read at least - but think it's far too much information, the picture in the post is much easier to read.

@DaveBerlin the last PDF link doesn't work. Send again if you can. Thanks.

Guys, I've just had the service done today.
I'm a little confused about the menus.

Under system/maintenance I can enter a number in mileage. I'm guessing this is the amount of miles I want to be reminded of - when reached need a service?

Then the option below... Is to reset this counter back to zero?

Is that correct??

+ why are there no other service reminders?
Like brake fluid and others?

Thanks.

I've never had a car with brake fluid replacement reminder - in theory you shouldn't require it under an annual service regime since it will be automatically covered (?) unless you're doing a really high mileage making services more frequent than yearly.
