Service decision yes or no

hi, I'm looking into getting full service, 123000 miles, 500miles left on service indicator.

last service inspection @ 112218 miles, 28/05/13

18/08/13 cam belt service replace front/rear cam belts & tensioners aux belt & tensioners

I have phoned 1 Indy and they have advised due to age and mileage I should have standard full service oil filters level checks etc, also should have transmission/transfer box/front/rear diff oil changed and they will do it all for 611.00 total.

My question is do I stick with the devil I no and just go with standard service as car seems great drives fine no wines bangs drips/leaks, gears smooth apart from if I'm being fussy in slow moving traffic when it changes from I think 1st to 2nd and back it has a slight jump.

Service is yearly or 12,000. Go for full service and do what Indy says. These cars are not to be run on the cheep. Thumbs Up MY11 Autobiography supercharged. Santorini Black. Monaco interior. Rear screens. Privacy.
Gone MY08 Supercharged HST. Java black. Ivory premium interior. Rear screens. Privacy. Missed a lot.
Gone MY04 Discovery V8 Petrol ES Premium. Awesome.

I would get the lot done except the transmission; that I would get "megaflushed". 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Yes thanks for replays, I think I'll go ahead and have it all done, I've only had the range a couple weeks and was bit concerned that it was 2 yrs since last logged service. Will also see if they do a mega flush and if not get that one done elsewhere. Thumbs Up Thanks again.

Be careful with the gearbox flush. They might say they're doing a flush but it might just be a double change as shown in the workshop manual. Proper dialysis type flushes are rare. There are a couple of travelling Indies doing them. Check out Geoff on Disco3. He goes around the country and "advertises" his trips over there. He did mine last year and is a good chap.
