when do i need to service the car

greetings members
i have a freelander2 td4 2.2.
the last service was 16th march 2012
the next service will be a 5 year/75,000 mile service, the car has only done 32,000
do i need to have the car serviced on or before the 16th march , or is there a limit after the date for example up to one month after.
do i wait until a reading/notification on the dash come up telling me when to have a service

regards

Every twelve months or 15k miles or which ever comes first

Quote:

MAIN SERVICE = The main service is applicable to all vehicles. It is carried out at 12 month or 15,000 mile intervals, whichever occurs first.
Main Service "A" is applicable at 12 months/15,000 miles, 36 months/45,000 miles, 60 months/75,000 miles 84 months/105,000 miles and so on.
Main Service "B" is applicable at 24 months/30,000 miles, 48 months/60,000 miles, 72 months/90,000 miles, 96 months/120,000 miles and so on. Some items do not need to be carried out at every main service and these items are identified by an indicator in the tick box e.g. 60k (This indicates that this item is only applicable every 60,000 miles)
NOTE: The service required should be at the time or distance stated, which ever occurs first.

The service indicator will start counting down in one of the LCDs in the dash when it is less than 30 days to service I think

i wouldn't wait for the service counter, never seen mine in 3 years of ownership, i sure they forget to program it or i don't look in the ODO dial area when starting for the half a second it comes on Confused Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

True - the 'number of days' indicator on the dash is only on for a few moments at startup. I nearly missed it altogether around the time of my first service...

Need to specifically look for it... ...

Be true to yourself. That way happiness lies...
