Rather shocked at this thread - When I bought the Jimny new in 2019 - a three year/36000 mile all in Service Package from Suzuki cost a bit over £400 inclusive of VAT. As I understand it, the service package can be used at any Suzuki dealership. So someone is having a laugh at £300 for one service - unless you are getting all the ;'extras' thrown at you in the Executive Waiting Room, whist you watch movies with a latte and muffins?

The service schedule in Australian book does not show the diff oil ever being replaced.
I'm told they inspect and if it looks bad they change it.
Had a garage do all the Jim fluids.

I've been quoted £365 for the 2nd service.

When I got the jimny I asked for the price of a 3 year service plan and was quoted over £800

You can get a service anywhere, BUT you MUST ensure any parts and lubricants used are of equivalent quality to genuine. Also you MUST have proof that the exact service schedule tasks have been carried out. If you don't do this and for example you have a fault with a trim part or an electrical part you would probably be ok under warranty, however if it was something mechanical under the bonnet you may well be on thin ice...

Diff oil change is at first major service, not second.

Be interested to see if that makes a difference in lifespan, I've always been good with keeping up with the pampering on Dreadnaught, I guess time will tell how many 100k plus gen4 we start seeing in a few years.

It is 9K. The book says 12500 but i am reliably informed that according to the Suzuki system it is 9. Also the book is also wrong about the oil, it says 0w16 but the Suzuki system says 0w20. Not much point in reading the book is there.

Service intervals for Gen.4 are multiples of 12 months or 12,500 miles. In my case, because of Covid and surgery, service check light has just come on and Tonka is booked in for this Friday. Mileage is 3074. On the basis that average mileage in the UK is approx. 8,500, servicing will be at intervals of 8,500.As modern engines are more efficient and less dirty and oils are more efficient at what they do and engine designers are bound to err on the side of caution, I see no reason why a Suzuki engine should have any trouble in exceeding 100k miles and more.

Mind you I am not as cynical as some.

It's shown as being 9k for countries other than the EU (inc UK) and Israel, 12.5k for the EU/Israel.

0W20 is listed as preferred for non-EU/Israel, with 0W16 preferred for EU/Israel, although 0W16 (or 5W30) are ok.
