Two consecutive B services required?

But they are done as part of a B service (if due)? I don't think I've ever seen them come up during a A (on any of our vehicles).

The electronic service sheet gets itself in a muddle if time / mileage aren't "average" - mine was on ServicePlus and I always had a battle getting stuff done as it didn't come up as it should on the ESS especially as my mileage started off high, then dropped off.

Just for fun I put mine in MyService a while ago and it called for an A service and coolant change - the coolant change at £275!
 
I guess around 9k miles a year is very untypical for a commercial vehicle, which could well be a factor here.
 
It sounds like it's time based. As the Vito has 9.5 litres of oil the mileage for that is greater than a car with 6.5 litres.

Tbh I'm surprised it goes near a main agent as a 2007 mo mo.

To my mind,
oil & filter, yes.
Air filter (only 1 on yours), check condition and 'maybe' just bang it brush it clean. But they aren't expensive away from a dealer.
Pollen filter same.
Belts, 2 of, check condition but if changed in the last 30k miles should be ok.
Fuel filter if changed last time is ok. Good for 50k miles really.
Brake fluid should be changed at 2 years.
An Indy would do what you want w/o applying a guilt trip.
 
Brothers (and sisters) we need to take back control, no longer will we be ruled by machines telling us what to do, fight back, say no. Or more seriously, I have been servicing my car for the last 16 years myself, oil and filter annually (regardless of mileage), other filters as needed.

Auto box serviced twice, coolant changed once, brake fluid twice, discs and pads as required etc. The computer can take a running jump, just a money making device for the industry. She will be 18 this September and runs as well today as the day I picked her up new from the dealer, hoping I haven't put the kiss of death on her ;)
