I know that the 30.000 is maximum but as I describe several people I know who also drive Skoda(only not Roomster) has no problem reaching 30k. The two times it was needed there were only about 1y 4m between the services. And the car is set for Q1(Longlife).

I have a Roomster petrol 1,4 from 2008 (I think thou it's the 2007 version). I use the long life service but both times the computer told me it was time for service I had only driven short of 25.000. I drive 30/70(city/freeway), about 60km/day and relatively nice(the last 16 month I have had an all over fuel consumption of 6,9L/100km). Several people I know also driving Skoda(only not Roomster) has no problem reaching the magic 30.000 between their long life service even thou they have the same driving pattern. To mee it sounds like the computer is not programmed with the correct number of km. But from Skoda the answer is that it is not possible. Does anyone here have similair "problem"? Or simply: HOW FAR DO YOU DRIVE BTWN YOUR VARIABLE SERVICES? Someone told me that when the onboard computer says the car needs service it's because the oil is too thick and needs changing. So if the oil cannot handle 30.000 then what's it worth driving longlife service instead of fixed service that uses a cheaper oil? If you answer please also shortly descripe your driving pattern. I'll apriciate answers from everyone no matter how far you drive. Martin
