Servicing

hi , looking for a wee bit information

i have on 06 jimny which is my everyday car , just wondering how often they are meant to b serviced every 6,000 , 10,000 miles or so
also how often do you change the spark plugs and general running of the jeep

thanks any info helps

They should be serviced every 6000 mls or 6mths. Whichever is the sooner

How about reading the bloody manual ? even the user manual is very detailed in regard to service intervals and operations that need to be performed.

Now I am sure there is no need for that.
I didn't have an owners manual with mine for about 3 months. Mind you in the factory manual the service interval is 6000ml or 6mths but in the owners manual it is 9ooomls or 9mths. Who do you believe.

When do you get yours serviced??

I'm a bad example for this, as I'm often away for 1-2 months and the Jimny sits still during that time :laugh:

Using common sense and a bit of judgement together with the manual is a good rule of thumb. Let's say you need to change the air filter:

- manual says inspect every 15k kilometers and replace at 45k and 90k for normal usage and tarmac driving
- under difficult conditions, the manual says to inspect it every 2500 kilometers and replace it if needed.
- considering how much offroad driving I've done since the last change, I will replace it somewhere between 5k and 10k maximum.

Spark plugs:

- normal conditions: replace every 45k or 3 years for iridium spark plugs
- tough conditions: replace every 30k or 2 years
- I change them right after 30k at the first opportunity.

Not that difficult

Thanks wanderinstar for the info

Agree no need for that ) I don't have a bloody manual to read , finding it hard to get one tho that's none of your business but we'l leave that there

Thanks again
