Hi Chris , depends a bit on what was done at the last service ,but i would go with :

oil and filter
plugs
all belts
brake fluid
check turbo and manifold nuts to make sure they are tight
removes wheels and clean brake disc and calipers ,check pads
check for rust around rear chasis frame
check all ball joints and dampers .
tyre pressures and tyre ware

wash and polish and pay large bill !!!!!

I'd like to think that when I hand over £700+ once a year the dealer does slightly more than that list.

A very nice man on here created a specific list based on the factory service list with a few extra bits.

Phill, How could I get a link to the word file on Noble parts?
