When was your brake fluid last changed?

dont know bud, got the car in october last year, havnt taken note. worth doing?

Ideally should be done every 2 years!

Before you change your fuel filter put some fuel/injector treatment/cleaner in the fuel tank then fill tank up and then run to almost dry....then fit a new filter.....this cleans the carp out of the tank into the old filter.!!

Also use some Wynns engine flush (does it work with diesel engines tho'???) in the old oil before you drain it down as this helps to get rid of sludge and varnish! B)

Can't think of anything else to add for a service! B)

Is this necessary on a diesel?

I was under the impression a proportion of the fuel pumped to the engine was pumped back into the tank, Effectively stirring the contents!

I could of course be barking up the wrong tree!emoticon-0105-wink.gif

Don't know for sure........I tend to do things as "a just in case"........ I do know that Millers "forte" i think it's called which is for adding to the fuel tank does make a shed load of a difference...my mates used it and it's had good reviews in car mags like VW driver etc! B)
