TD5 Service intervals

Chris Robley · Dec 22, 2015

Hi, Chris from Nottingham. Had Frontera for 6 years, Shogun for 8 years, Audi A4 for 2 years (Yuk !) now with 03 plate TD5 only 62k on the clock but no service history or manual. Full MOT but I don't know any service intervals. Can any one advise ? Thanks, Chris

Welcome to LZ.
I'm a low mileage user, fewer than 5000 miles a year. The routine I've adopted is engine oil change and all filters every year (at MoT time). Gearbox, t-box, front and back axles every two years. Prop shaft grease points every 6 to 12 months, as I remember, but always included in the annual service.

Thanks for that, that gives me a good indication to suit my expected mileage.

Similar mileage, 02 TD5. I do the exact same. Except I only change the fuel filter every 2 years

Also Welcome

I'm slightly higher than these guys. I do 14 a yr.
I change oil and filters every 8k miles. Diff oils etc the same time, I intend to do the diff etc more if I take it off road incase of water ingress.

Thanks, I think from all the feedback, I'm going to do all work every 6 months probably around 6,000 miles. Much the same as I did on my shogun. That had done 220,000 and was still going strong.
