Post First service??

Guys when is the first service due? I looked in the manual and it said 30,000km,which, unless i have read it wrong, seems quite a lot to me. Can somebody point me in the right direction please.

Thanks,

Mike

Re: First service??

hi, on the sporting model there is a menu button to the right of the steering wheel on the dashboard, one of the options is to check how many miles u have left until your next service. imnot sure if other models have this menu button but im sure they do
