Service coming up?

Guys, is this an inspection service, at the top?
In the past this has always shown June for when my MOT came around. I thought maybe the guy had reset it incorrectly but now I'm thinking it might be for the inspection.

Correct, Vehicle inspection is just MOT reminder.

Vehicle check is a con tbh, as 99% of it is covered by an MOT. There are a few bits but it's not a lot more than an MOT. I think they will actually plug the car in and have a look to see if there are any codes, that's about all you get on top of an MOT.

Thanks guys! That's handy. I didn't want to pay for a big service right after a december holiday, christmas and new year.

I had to reset the rear brake check because of me fitting the after market discs. The people at the time didn't do it but they have fitted the wear sensors so they will flag if actually in need of a change.
