Hey all, I'm looking at purchasing a 2017 SSV Redline, with the LS3 motor. I've got a predicament with the logbook of this particular car.
The service book appears to be missing one of its early services (Particularly the 45,000km interval). The service interval goes from #1 completed at 17,000km, #2 completed at 32,700km, and then it jumps 15 months forward and the next recorded service is at 65,500km. The current owner claims that was the previous owners doing. The car has since gone on to be serviced at regular 15K-16K intervals up until 115K, where it sits today.
My question is; do we think that it's a case of a missed stamp or perhaps a service at home? If the car REALLY went 33,000kms without a service, would there be obvious issues? Especially if it's gone on to be regularly serviced until now, and appear to have no problems? (I've reviewed videos of the car running, and doesnt appear to miss a beat)
I'll note that I'll have a remote vehicle inspection performed before purchasing to assess general condition, and that will include a test drive, but do we think the likelihood of this motor making it to where it is now would have been possible without that service, and would there be obvious signs? Thanks guys!
