View Full Version : Service intervals copperband 10-30-2003, 07:10 PM Anyone know what the service intervals are from new. I seem to remember that they were quite regular? I will do about 3000 miles a month in the 8 so I probably will need to book it in for a service as soon as I get it? Ed mr_digital_uk 10-31-2003, 01:37 AM In the US it's every 7500 miles. In Canada or Puerto Rico it's every 5000 miles (cold temps, dusty atmosphere, short trips etc given as the reason). Haven't seen the UK owner's manual but my guess will be every 6000 miles morganrogers 10-31-2003, 01:56 AM Actually , I have read for UK it is 12,000 miles. Seems high , but who knows... AnilS 10-31-2003, 02:44 AM Yes Morgan is right, 12K miles. I do about 8K miles a year but it will still have an oil change every 6 months. AnilS. mazdamanjnr 10-31-2003, 03:06 AM service intervals are 12500 oilman 10-31-2003, 04:09 AM Service intervals and prices are here! http://www.rx8ownersclub.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=47 Cheers Oilman Lucozade 11-03-2003, 04:25 PM THANKS Bristol RX8 11-04-2003, 07:30 AM Hi guys I just checked at the Dealer in Bristol and they said 12500. Cost will be less than £200 for the full service. I would imaging a lot less for an oil change. I will be changing my oil every 3000 with this car I think. James Edo 11-04-2003, 07:44 AM Does anything need doing early on - 1000 mile check or anything? oilman 11-04-2003, 07:45 AM James, Check here for service schedules and prices in Cornwall. http://www.rx8ownersclub.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=47 Cheers Oilman |
