    Hey guys have a new renault fluence and was wondering about the service intervals on them. It's the 1.5dci version. Also when is the timing belt due if anyone knows????

    Sorry to ask but it was missing the maintenance book and can't find any info online. Can I ask in a renault dealership for a spare??

    Many thanks

    Accessory drive belt change interval
    up to 2012/05 every 160.000 km / 6 years
    from 2012/06 every 150.000 km / 6 years

    Fuel filter change interval
    up to 2012/05 every 60.000 km
    from 2012/06 every 60.000 km / 4 years

    Interior (pollen) filter change interval
    up to 2012/05 every 30.000 km / 2 years
    from 2012/06 first at 30.000 km / 1 year, then every 30.000 km / 2 years

    Engine oil and filter change interval
    every 30.000 km / 2 years

    Personally I would change the oil every 15,000 km or every year depending which is first if it was my car, for longevity reasons but that's what the manufacturer quotes :o

    It might be wrong here, but on older 1.5 dci models, the accessory belt goes and takes the timing belt with it, worth getting it changed before the interval if that's the case.

    It's the same interval for both so they should be replaced together anyway though.

    Obviously not all owners replace them together because usually the accessory belt stays on until it snaps :D

    I'm saying the accessory belt should be done before it snaps and takes the timing belt with it.

    T.Belt is due @ 160k or 5 years. Renault do a full timing kit supply and fit for €599.

    They are fairly fond of snapping timing belts before 160k, some dealerships recommended doing them with the 120k service.

    Services are variable, you'd only see fleet whores on 30k, most private ones are on 20k 12 month intervals.

    Services are
    20k oil
    40 k oil, pollen, brake fluid
    60k oil and fuel
    80k oil, air, brake fluid
    100k is back to a 20k

    Yeah, first engine air filter @80k.

    And dealer would print you a maintenance table.

    I have a Megane 1.5dci 2011 but would be identical engine to the Fluence what effects it is whether it's euro 4 or euro 5 engine. Mine is the first of the euro 5. I got Renault Ireland to send me out the interval for mine based on Reg and my one is due at 155k km. I was going to do mine at 150k km but might go abit earlier there is 143k km on it now. The euro 4 engine was 120k km interval so a 2010 Fluence would be euro 4. The accessory belt is original on mind and I've had no issue with it.

    You can see the interval for both of you click on the euro 4 / euro 5 brochure from Renault website.
