Hi QLD guys !

I'll be heading off early on Saturday morning to start heading up to Rainbow Beach (near Fraser Island). I'll be staying somewhere on the way up on Saturday night, then continuing the journey the next day.

While I'm up there though, I'll be needing to get the car serviced on the way back as it will cross 195,000kms.

Can anyone suggest somewhere reputable & trustworthy either in the Sunshine Coast area or in the Brisbane-ish area ??

Thanks guys for any help you can offer to a NSW Leggie owner ! ;)

Brad.

Hi Brad,

The guy in Coffs i bought my Legnum off is good, and cheap too!

It would be good to get some daytime shots this time!

Have fun!

How man kms over the service interval do u think you will travel. If it is only 500 to 1000 you will be right till you get home. The service intervals on these cars are quite conservative, and a little over will not hurt the car at all. Just for added caution i would not go hammering it while you are over it.

To me i would rather go over by a little and get it serviced by someone i trust and have had to it before, rather than get it done while i am away from home where if something went wrong i would be stranded.

Just give it an oil and filter change before you leave. Only take you an hour or so and would then give you full peace of mind.
