Diesel engines often require specific low-SAPS oil and may have slightly different intervals. Always consult the manual. Timing Belt Interval: For engines equipped with a timing belt (e.g., 1.1L TU1JP, 1.4L TU3JP), replacement is typically recommended around 100,000 - 120,000 km (60,000 - 75,000 miles) or 5-6 years. Check for interference engine design for critical replacement. HDi engines use timing chains or belts depending on the specific variant. Manual verification is crucial. Brake Fluid Interval: Recommended replacement every 2 years regardless of mileage to maintain performance and prevent moisture absorption.
