Thanks for any input. Perhaps they need re directing to the correct service manual?

Thanks.
I would be concerned about taking my car there if I were you! Diff and gearbox oil are both changed on the Inspection 2.

The fuel filter is not on the service schedule, but the filter is included in the value line service kit, I would expect it to be fitted.

As Glendog says, the valve clearances are also checked and adjusted, they will need the car for 2 days. If you drop it off at 9am, and they call you just after lunch to say its done, they've not done the clearances.

I have a table to record the clearances and any adjustments made, a copy of which goes to the customer.

Outside of the service schedule, whenever I see a CSL for a service I also carry out a smooth running test to check the headgasket, a Vanos test, and remove and clean/replace the Vanos filter.

If you have any other questions, PM me
