My RRS has done 7,300 miles and is just over 10 months old. Today I saw the "Service required in 1900 miles" message in the instrument panel. The app has also started showing the service icon, the details of which include "vehicle has indicated service is due imminently". The service menu in the instrument panel is also showing the same interval for oil service (1,900 miles) and 5,405 miles for DEF refill. There is no permanent icon/warning light/message in the instrument panel. The message with 1,900 miles only appears when starting (or was it switching off?) the car.

Service interval is X 000 miles OR ONE YEAR) so your car is estimating how many miles left until the 12 months are up.

Thanks. I would have thought if it was estimating based on time, it would give me a number of days rather than miles remaining as per the handbook. That's what my previous RRS used to do as well - showed number of days until service was due when it got closer to 1 year since last service.

Combination of time and driving style isn't it? |

Yes, but I was under the impression I was a mechanically sympathetic driver The last one didn't require either of the 2 services to be brought forward. Having said that, I am doing more than my average mileage on this one for the sheer pleasure of it. Have already updated annual mileage with the insurer once and paid the increased premium and it seems I may have to do the same again.

But your actual low annual mileage possibly indicates lots of short and maybe urban runs, which would count as more "severe" service than hours spent at motorway speeds. MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

Yes, lots of city driving but certainly more than half of the mileage is long runs at motorway speeds. DPF never required a regen and DEF never required a refill and still showing 5,405 miles remaining. I was hoping these were indications of not-too-severe use. Wishful thinking perhaps.

Dealer saying not to worry if it isn't serviced within the next 1,900 miles and goes over (probably because they don't have a slot available before our holiday). As long as the service isn't missed completely it doesn't have any impact on warranty according to them. I have booked it in straight after we come back.

I am sure I read somewhere that warranty can be voided if you go 1000 miles over a service interval. In your case, probably not too significant.

At 10 months old I think your car is asking for it's first service and is not the same issue that I had as my service due reminder was on way too early. |

I think so too now. It has gone down from 1900 to 1850 after use over the weekend so doesn't appear to be a glitch. Had it displayed the service message giving me a number of days until service was due (like the previous car), I would have been more accepting because only 7 weeks to go until it is 12 months old. It was the mileage based nature of the message that caused a bit of concern initially.

Hard to tell from the lack of Signatures if this is engine specific or not ? If not then is it year specific ? M16 SVD8 ,4.4 HSE with a few extras, Sold R50 , Wife SQ5 , BMW R1200GSW. |

My first service is showing as due immanently on the incontrol app . 2750 miles and 12 months old in October. What are landrover paying the dealer to do a service, as I'm thinking of changing dealerships are they going to be fighting over the work and future custom or do you think they won't give a toss . |

So few miles in 12 months? Push bike would serve you better ? I now have 20,000 k's in 5 months so first service will be soon. M16 SVD8 ,4.4 HSE with a few extras, Sold R50 , Wife SQ5 , BMW R1200GSW. |
