Hi all
ive had my diesel evoque since October and a few weeks ago the message "service required" come up on the dash
the thing is it's only done 4500km and first service should be at 10000km
i live on st Maarten and the dealer in Guadeloupe, and not being very helpful
Any one have any ideas?

cheers Dean

I think that the issue is the oil gets contaminated with fuel. The diesel Evoques need AdBlue fluid to clean the Diesel Particulate Filter. The cleaning only happens at speed on a longish drive. Short trips are not good for the new diesels. If the dealer isn't helpful, I guess if it were me, I would pay for an oil change. Cheap insurance, to protect you expensive vehicle. Just my thoughts for what they are worth:).
