The service sheet has only A and B and numbers starting from 3. Could it actually mean "Service B plus 3" in your case. 3 is just the engine oil and filter change.

not saying you are wrong bcuz you are half right... this is what it reads on my invoice 15465 LOF 0.60 service 2 & 3 due. performed LOF only with 8.5 qts syn oil. reset fss. corrected fluid levels & tire press. (no indication of service b needed, i am only at 15k)

i get what service a and b is...but was not clear on 2 & 3. however, i did find out some info in this forum.... it has to do with the extent of the service that needs to be done...

Can you explain the other half where I was wrong?

I don't know about this more than what I told before but A and B as such are a list of items that are to be performed, thus those too are about the extent of service that needs to be done. I'm looking at the 2008 US service sheet and it does have other numbered items like
4: brake fluid
8: engine air cleaner insert etc.
but there is no reference to 1 or 2. This is why I was guessing if 1 would refer to service A items (part of service A but I mean the list A at the service sheet) and 2 might have referred to list B.

i didnt mean to get you all worked up on this subject ... just wanted to find out what does service 2 & 3 consist of, I know about service A & B but what does 2 & 3 refer too....(maybe 2 is brake check or whatever it means...) so i didnt mean to say you were completely wrong, just trying to find more information about what exactly service 2 and 3 is, bcuz on my invoice it says its due.... you were no help to this subject...your service sheet from 2008 is outdated..ill just ask the service manager...maybe his 'service sheet' will have more information than yours. lol...didnt ask about other numbers on the service sheet, just 2 & 3, you mention there is no 2, so maybe...you dont have information to answer the question. you tried to answer the question but you did not do enough....anyways, like i said, i found the info from someone else in the forum that did have enough information to answer it...btw...i did say you were half right, i thought it was nice enough but no you wanted full credit....so here you go, just for you.....MAN, thanks for the help, you answered my question completely, i dont know what i would have done without your help. next time ill just PM you so i can get a faster response to my questions....thanks bro.
