What sort of service should I have?
 

I bought it in Feb 2015 with 88k, only stamps for history, and had it serviced including belts and water pump.

July 2015 I had the ATF done at 91k.

Feb 2016 I replaced the air filter as the wheel arch door had fallen off and the wheel was throwing mud at it

April 2016 I had an oil and oil filter service at 95,700.

March 2017 oil and oil filter service at roughly 101k.

Here we are at 110k. What now? I have no evidence of plug or fuel filter replacement, except for a dimly remembered conversation with a mechanic who reckoned the easy to get at plugs had been replaced before I owned it, but not the difficult ones. Note the mileage will decrease now we've got another car for the daily commute.

The timing belt renewal schedule is every six years or 90K miles, so you've got that covered for a while. All the servicing stuff is covered in the MGR schedule below:

For a typical 15K miles per year car, the main points are:
Annual oil/filter change.
Pollen filter every two years
Engine air filter every two years.
Spark plugs every four years.
New brake fluid every two years.
Renew OAT coolant every four years (non-OAT as specified by manufacturer).
Replace manual transmission oil every seven years.
Replace auto transmission fluid every four years.

Where yours stands in all this is unknown, so do the essentials (oil/filter) and assess the rest. It's probably best to assume the worst if you intend servicing to schedule.

That's very useful, thanks. Why isn't the fuel filter mentioned?

There's no service schedule required for the petrol filter, it's a lifetime fit.
However, you should be aware of the Fuel Filter Syndrome (FFS) that affects later (post 2001) models. Use search term 'FFS' if you don't know what I mean.

I`m not agree definitely for petrol V6 engines. There are two kind of fuel filter sets. Early version /with metal filter/ and the late one /with paper filter/.
If not replaced will fuel pump failure for shure. Personal experience - I changed fuel set in both my 75`s. Successful.
They /1999 and 2001/ ware originally with the metal filter. Now they are with the paper one. Easy to find spare filter.
Will advice if necessary.

Yes, I've had FFS, the only time the car has let me down.

Petrol pump failure is extremely uncommon, as is replacing the fuel filter. Your experience is unusual. Maybe you were unlucky or maybe there was another reason for the pump to fail. To say that the filter must be replaced otherwise the pump will fail is just scaremongering, sorry. :cool:

No sorry here - this is your opinion...
