Blatman Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 Most odd. May be worth trying to ascertain a manufacturer ID and checking on the service life. Or perhaps a call to one of the prop specialists like Bailey Morris for some advice... Quote
Martin Keene Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 A quick google finds this: Bailey Morris Technical Seems like there are sealed for life props. I guess mine isn't a Westfield item then, must be Bailey or Reco or A.N. Other Quote
Martin Keene Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Indeed. Thinking about it some more SWMBO has an S2000 which doesn't need the prop greasing according to the service schedule. And I can't believe all these BMW's, Merc's, Lexi, etc need it doing in this day and age either. Quote
Blatman Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 It's a fair point. I've just never seen a Westfield supplied prop without grease nipples. You learn something new every day... Quote
adamnreeves Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 Ok guys, mainly because I am bored waiting for the DLVA I am going to design a service booklet. Watch this space! Quote
adamnreeves Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 What do you reckon to this for a format? here Its in B5 size. Quote
adamnreeves Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 So something like: Service 1 - Every 12months or 10,000 miles • Change engine oil and filter • Replace or re-oil air filter • Check and top-up brake/clutch fluid • Check coolant level Service 2 - Every 24months or 20,000 miles • Change brake/clutch fluid and bleed brakes • Replace spark plugs • Inspect CVJ boots • Inspect all suspension bolts • Grease prop-shaft UJs Service 3 - Every 36months or 30,000 miles • Replace coolant • Check transmission oil and top-up • Check differential oil and top-up • Check condition of fuel and brake lines • Check suspension alignment Service 4 - Every 48months or 40,000 miles • Replace fuel filters Service 5 - Every 60months or 60,000 miles • Replace transmission oil • Replace differential oil • Replace Cam-belt where fitted Quote
Martin Keene Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 Format looks good mate. I'd base the mileages on average annual mileage, so maybe a quick poll to gauge average mileage. Quote

I wasn't sure what to do with mileages, maybe base on 5,000 pa. but I figured that in most cases the time will come round first. Quote
