Inspect service? Not sure what you mean by that. There is a light that comes up saying "Service in xx miles".

Try and never let your oil light comes on as it means its low, try and check it as regulalrly as possible. I do mine once a month and top up as required.

No idea about the brakes, sorry.

sloshing noise, could it be water trapped somewhere and breaking moving it about?? check under the bonnet to see if your scuttle drain holes are not blocked, could it also be the fuel in your tank moving around..... or am i just barking up the wrong tree here... lol..  :lipsrsealed:
Cheers, George.... 1.8 GTIt and loving it!!

Id say fuel moving in your tank is climbing to the top and a waving a flag shouting "this is my tree!" let along barking up the wrong tree :D
