Just hit the big 40K

[MilanoChris]

Crikey! Engine is as loose as ever though, superb!

 

[Suped]

Nice one mate. At the 50k and the engine is still as strong. :lol:

 

[liktup]

Well if the engine is anywhere near as good as the older B series engine 100k and it will still only be stretching its legs 8)

 

[Rob CTR]

liktup we need more information on that avatar...

As for the topic - mine rolled thru 40k on sunday - love it!

 

[Tim_85]

Just rolled through 50K. No problems with the engine. Only thing bugging me is the 50K service costs £££'s

 

[MilanoChris]

My next service is due in Feb or Mar. I think it's a major one. Must check docs :lol:

 

[Tim_85]

Yeah, I got a bit of a surprise when I booked it in this time.
Thought i was in for an oil/filter change.
Turns out its:

Engine Oil
Oil Filter
Air Filter
Engine Coolant
Spark Plugs
Gearbox Oil
Fuel Filter
Tappets

:shock:

On top of that I reckon I need new front pads and 4 new 18" tyres.
All this just before Christmas aswel. Time for a new Credit card I think

Never actually been to TGM. Where is it?
