servicing

I've an 18-month old Volkswagen Scirocco 1.4 TSI with 23,000km on it bought new. It isn't driven hard at all, but I had to put a litre of oil into it today because the warning light came on; is this normal? Should I be getting it checked out by Volkswagen? The on-board computer says next service is still 7,000km away?

I have a 2001 Toyota Avensis 2.0-litre automatic. Is it cam belt or chain driven?

Does the 2006 Ford S-Max Zetec TDCi have a timing belt or chain?

2010 Audi A4 2.0 TDIe SE: timing belt or timing chain? How to find out ?

I have a 2004 Nissan X-Trail petrol. Are these fitted with a timing chain or a timing belt?

Does my 2010 2.2-litre diesel Honda Civic have a timing belt, and if so when does it need to be changed? It has about 80k miles on the clock.

I've just bought a Ford Focus TDCi 1.8 with 135,000km on the clock; lovely car, but I can't find out if it has a timing belt or chain. Can you help me find out?

Hi, I own a Toyota Auris Luna 1.4 diesel with 50,000km on the clock. Since my last service, which included an oil change, I've clocked up 5,000km and I've gotten two dashboard warnings saying 'oil level low' and I've topped up with a half litre on both occasions. There are no obvious oil leaks and no smoke from the exhaust. I phoned the dealer and he says this is normal for modern diesels.

Is that correct? My Dad has a different diesel car and rarely has to top up the oil level between services. Look forward to your comments.

Thanks

I own a 2008 Hyundai Sante Fe with 117,000 miles on the clock; when should the timing belt be changed?

When should the timing belt be done in a 2000 Ford Focus 1.6?
