I can't actually find that sort of stuff on Service Pox, am I looking in the right place?

If it's a 136bhp then it's the earlier car, wouldn't it be the same as the 406 2.2 HDi? Haynes says 72,000 miles for that.

Once you're signed in there's a link on one of the drop-down menus at the top

We started off by saying where you'd be likely to find out, then someone told you exactly how you'd go about it, then we drifted off into sillyness. It's kind of traditional here, I'm sorry that isn't good enough for you. Didn't they help you on any of the other forums you're on?

I'm finding this kind of reaction on forums a lot recently and it really pisses me off, forums aren't a personal information service :x They're a community of enthusiasts, who usually help other users in whatever way they can, but they do it for the benefit of fellow suffererers, sorry owners, and not because there's any obligation. :? You can't go on forums and expect answers, if people don't know they can't tell you!!!!!

You've come on here and asked a question about a car which none of us are familiar with, no-one knows the answer but between 3 of us we've told you where and how to find out. But even that doesn't appear to be good enough, are you expecting someone to find out for you? :roll: You aren't my boss in disguise are you?? :shock:

When I looked it was all over the place, depending on year (which we weren't told).

Why in km? Hold on, 100 is 60, 80 is 50, so that's 130k miles, hmm.
