Bora 2.0i Service Schedule Missing

[zimbora]

Hi everyone,

Just bought a Bora today, 1999 2.0i SE Manual, nice!

Bought it privately and came with all the car info but only just realised that the 'Service Schedule' section from the folder is missing!

It does have with it a separate VW 'service schedule' booklet but its a duplicate and has all the service history stamped in that, but no info on when things need to be done. I can only presume that the lost service schedule included the details of what gets serviced when.

Does anyone have a copy of the service schedule's for a Bora 2.0i 1999 that they can send over? Even a pic of their booklet will do. Need to know when cam belts, drive belts, gear oil, etc need to be done.

Many thanks
zimbora

One more question if the guru's can help:

One of the service entrys in the duplicate book has 'BFS' and another has 'BFC' written next to the service that was done, eg '10K BFS'.

Any ideas what BFS and BFC might mean?
Thanks

I have a haynes manual that tells you all of the service interval details, I'll type it out for you. Don't know what BFS or BFC stand for.

i think bfc means brake fluid change, hope this helps
