    Default VY EcoTec 195000 km service

    Hey,

    I thought that the service computer only came up to tell you to service every 10000kms ie 120000, 130000. But my VY2 ecotec has now done almost 195000kms. The trip computer is telling me that the 195000kms service is due. Is this a special service? if so can someone tell me the items for service as I dont have the service book?

    Cheers
