Default 1000 mile service

How close did you get your actual miles to the 1000 mile service time?

Default RE: 1000 mile service

I have 991 miles on the clock at the moment. Assuming I don't go anywhere this afternoon, its a 14 mile ride to my dealership and I have my service booked for 9am tomorrow morning.

Husband will probably have around 1100-1200 on his by the time his goes in for his service on Monday morning.

I pulled into the lot with 998 so I lapped the building a few times and gave it to them with exactly 1000.

The dealer told me wait a few hundred after the 1000 mark before the 1000 service. I rolled into the shop with about 1270 or so.
