The everyday problem
Which confirmed vehicle tasks and documents need reviewing?
Use your manufacturer or qualified provider’s intervals, dated odometer readings and actual completed work to calculate the next date and distance threshold. Keep costs and verified document dates alongside. The rule begins at 10,000 km on 01 Jan. A later recorded service at 12,000 km on 01 Jul advances a six-month / 5,000 km interval. The current reading is dated; the workbook does not extrapolate it.
