Can anyone provide a .pdf copy of the service schedule for a 2004 1.2 Twist? Thank you.

Personally I'd just buy the Haynes repair manual as it will give you lots of torque figures and other advice concerning repairing other areas of the car, which at this age will need doing.

Oil+filter is 12 months or 10,000 miles Airfilter best done at 4 years or 40,000 miles, Spark Plugs best done at 4 years or 40,000miles.

Petrol filter is normally a lifetime item unless suspected of being choked. Pollen Filter when it looks dirty, officially every 2 years.

Engine Coolant could last the life of the car, though maybe better replacing it with same product after 10 years.

Gearbox Oil is for life.

Brake Fluid after 3 years then every 2 years.

Many thanks RUM4MO - much appreciated.

I have switched to the Mann FreciousPlus triple-layer cabin filter. It's not the cheapest, but it makes a huge difference (e.g. no diesel fumes from other vehicles). I had tried the activated carbon filters earlier but they are nowhere near this one in terms of performance.

+1 for the Mann FP cabin filters

I've been using Frecious Plus Mann pollen filters since they first appeared, but I thought, and hope I'm wrong, that ECP might be reducing their stock or coverage, I don't mind being wrong there though, both cars have just had their Frecious Plus Mann filters replaced!

My plan is to buy them when ECP is running a special special special discount code, which they seem to do twice a year!

I haven't been able to find them on ECP for a while and have been getting them from amazon for £15 with prime delivery which I think was roughly the same price I was paying from ECP with their "sales". I tend to find a lot of the MANN filters are cheaper or the same price but delivered on amazon rather than ECP.

@Bepis, cheers for that, I'll try to remember to widen my search the next time it is pollen filter changing time!
