Hi all,
I had my 2006 v50 d5 serviced the other day. It was a basic service, oil, filters etc, as I've only had the car a few weeks and it was due a service (12,000 since last) and I wanted to see if it threw up any nasty errors or issues etc.
Luckily it didn't, however 2 days later, got in and started the car and got the error message
"Engine system service required"
I've done a bit of reading on these forums but can't seem to get a straight answer. Is this a massive issue, or simply caused by the garage overfilling the new oil?
Also I've got it booked in tomorrow for a new cam belt as it's passed the 76,000 mile threshold and don't fancy chancing it snapping and the associated mind boggling repair costs etc.
I will speak to the garage tomorrow about the error, but just wanted some advice about what it may be? Is it very serious? How is it resolved?
Thanks in advance.
