Question Recommended 1st Service

Hi guys,

Perhaps a silly question, my 08 C4S has now 13K miles on it...... What is the recommended 1st service? Does the car actually give a warning that service is due?

Thanks

You'll get a service reminder on the dash. I went ahead and did my own oil change and inspected everything myself. To reset the reminder, I bought the durametric "easy" cable from FVD or you can have your dealership service department reset it for you. They wanted to charge me around $825 (estimate only) for my 1st service.

Best Regards,
Darren

24 month service is oil change and brake fluid change plus general inspection/road test.

I believe the stealer also likes to rotate the air in the tires, but that is extra.

I like that name, the "stealer". So accurate.
