The service manual for my path (2006 EURO) says service interval is 15000km and minor service (basicly engine oli change and just some checks) for each 15 Kkms. "bigger service" is for every 60 Kkms and "major" service for each 90 Kkms it includes replacing belt, coolant, all oil...

Not sure about the system (graphics) update but you can update your maps quite easily (DVD version).
All you need is DualLayer dvd disc and image file with map data.

Search for "Carminat Navigation Europa" for example.
Burn new DVD
Replace the DVD (reader is under passanger seat).

Rannunziato, you could check if it is VDC simply by switching it off.
I do not how it is on US models but mine [european] has a "ESP OFF" (same as VDC) switch at centre console between seat heater switches.

If your problem goes away while VDC is off, then you'll know its all normal.

Flashing "slip lihght" shows that vdc (esp on european models) is doing its job. It works exactly as you described.

Are you having this issue on ice?

Mine is 4.0 v6 gasoline (European version) and it has xenons. But I have no idea how to remove/replace the bulb.

Would have sucked to find out the hard way. Like that? http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7136/7628424310_48f7ab44a5_c.jpg I had quite similar situation on my trip to Norway. I was totally out of luck that day. First the jack broke, then the T-bar broke... It took about 30..45 min to get the spare tyre ...

2 weeks ago we had snow for a week, but it is all gone for now

I have been using Nokian (Haakapeliita 5) winter tyres for last 3-4 years.
Very good on ice and in deep snow.

My guess is that it is the gasket that you have to deal with. I have had similar problems with my ealier cars and it doesnt matter if it is diesel or petrol. With gasket it is getting worse and worse over the time and you have pretty good chance to get over heated and damaged cylinder head. NB! chec...

Here basicly every dealer (doesn't matte what brand) states to change oil at least once a year if you don't get the milage limit.

If you refill fuel in few months anyway, there is no point to worry about the fuel paramters geting worse.

Is it something similar to this?

I took mine to service at dealership and asked them to trace the noise. In my case the sound is from rear dirve shaft front u-joint. Dealer said that it is quite a usual for PF as the u-joint gets rusted over the time. So, I'll replace the u-joints of rear dirve shaft soon. I've done this with for f...

My path makes similar noise. (Sounds similar to a rubber friction) I lifted rear wheel and went under the truck to trace the noise. Seems it is coming from transfer case or front U-joint of rear drive shaft. The noise is clearly hearable while turning the wheel or driveshaft. The U-joints looks good...

PS-Any way you could make your Flickr photos available to everyone? Those photos are public at Flickr. You can take a look at this URL: http://www.flickr.com/photos/taavitiitsu/ Tavvi, what's up with that rear bumper bar? How does it attach and where did you get it? The rear bar was installed alrea...
