Had my 172 ful serviced approx 10500 miles ago,oil,filters,brake fluid,air con re-gas,plugs etc...now the 12000 mile service interval is aproaching, what do I need to have done at this service? Do you do your own servicing on your sports?

What millage is it on now, and how old is it?

 

[mike-evans]

forgot to mention the belts, I had the timing and aux belts done at 64000. Its now on 74446, and its on a 02 plate... Trying to do it on a low budget, so I wil prob just do the oil, oil filter and air filter myself, put new front discs, front and rear pads on it about 2 months ago for the MOT so I know the brakes are fine...

Sounds like youre on the right track mate, just do the above and put a new air filter in too.

These cars are incredibly easy to service, I cant understand why more people dont do the work themselves.
