Oil, Service and timing belt help.
#1
I've a 2014 XTR with 89,000 miles.
It hasn't been serviced in 3 years and there's now a triangle warning light permenantly on (no warnings on the radio).
Tonight it warned that oil needed topping up.

What oil should I be putting in it to tie me over until I get it serviced?
Is it due a timing belt change?

If it is due a timing belt change. What should I be paying for a service and timing belt change?

Not much info to go on there.

Assuming it's diesel, check if this suits your specific car, https://www.berlingoforum.com/thread-256...#pid155880 it's about as cheap as oil gets.

Sorry I totally forgot to add the engine.
It's a 1.6 Diesel HDi

I checked the link and Mannol website, they suggested 5W-30 C2.
So I got a litre of that and topped it up. Oil light has now gone and it'll do until I get it serviced.

I read also conflicting information regarding the timing belt.
Some say 100,000 miles, elsewhere suggest 150,000 miles

If it were mine the service and cam belt change would be urgent and I wwouldnt be driving it until it had been done. Also because it has been neglected I would be dropping the sump and either cleaning or replacing the filter on the oil feed to the turbo
