Put the car in for 20K service today ( Mitsubushi Pajero Sports 2011 ), the staff there tell me it needs to go in every 5K for service, that sounds a but frequent to me, anyone have any thoughts on this?

Didn't it come with a Service Record Book . Perhaps they meant Oil Change . You can use a better Oil and lengthen the Mileage.

They actually mention this in the Service book (page 37) (PJS GT 2011)

Normal Use: Every 10000 KM change Oil and oil filter

Heavy Use: Every 5000 KM change Oil and oil filter

Edit : // Added Scan (Hope you can read it, as it's not very clear)

Yep, 5000 is often 'recommended', bot you only need to visit them every 10,000KM in order to keep your new car warranty.

Many thanks for the replies.
