Defo service every 7,000 miles, the service intervals these days take the mickey and are just so people don't get put off with servicing costs.

145500 miles 2 ltr HDI. Still drives well, but I'm doing the rad at the moment..

Thanks for all the great posts.

As for high mileage, I run a fleet of coaches of different types. We think high mileage is once it has done over one million miles, of which I have several on their original mechanicals. Nothing more than the clutches have been changed.

Be carefull,

Richard.

147,000 miles so far its a Pug 406 hdi 110

I used to change the oil/filter about every 6000 miles. I don't do it anymore as the mechanic said its overkill. One thing i do use is the forte diesel conditioner which is specifically designed for common rail/hdi engines. This is what most of the garages use even when you put the motor in for a service even if they don't tell you. Does the same sort of thing as the millers. Its trade only but some motor factors stock it if you know where to look. After the front suspension spring snapping last week i think the rear suspension might be worth a look at next year makes you think a bit. Still having trouble cracking the lower balljoint
even after using the hammer on it after seems to be welded!
Thanks

Shell V-power doesn't seem to give any more power, but it does keep emissions clean along with the combustion chambers and associated parts. A clean engine will give more power. Shell V-power also seems to make the engine more noisy.
