There is a specific maintenance schedule for each car. You can download the service manual here which will tell you what each of those numbers means and the dates/mileage that each should be performed:

There is a lot of information available in the ASSYST PLUS system, and it is primarily used for warranty issues, such as exceeding the maintenance notification, and by how many days. It also records if the oil quantity increases between changes, indicating that oil has been replenished between changes in vehicles with excessive oil consumption.
This information can be forged/modified if someone had the incentive to do so from what I understand, though. I am not implying that your's has, but just an FYI. |

The log in the flash is not encrypted and can be easily modified. Just an FYI.
Thus a car that had virtually no maintenance can be made to appear to have perfect service record. |

Not that I don't believe either of you two, but is there any proof of this information being forged? If it's easily modifiable surely there's a how to on the internet?
