Service schedule - esp coolant

[estoril]

I've had a search and found information about the service schedule for the T6 but nowhere can I find a schedule that includes changing the coolant.

I called my local centre yesterday to book a 3-year service (van has only done 20K miles but has a service plan), I said I'd need a major service, brake fluid, coolant and MOT. I said coolant as everything else I have ever owned has had coolant changed every 2-3 years, I was told that it might need topping up but they never do a coolant change unless they are doing the water pump, is this correct, does that mean it's essentially every 4 years?

Is there a simple table somewhere that has all of the service items listed with years/miles?

Thanks.

The water pump replacement isn’t essential every 3 years and neither is the coolant. The coolant quality can be tested, you can buy a kit and test yourself.
If the pump is renewed then the vast majority of the coolant is drained, hence it is replaced.

Thanks @DXX, I wasn't suggesting it's essential at 4 years but rather that it would get done along with the cambelt and water pump schedule

The timing belt replacement interval isn’t 4 years, have a Search

Right, so 210,00km or 130K miles which my van will probably never do in my ownership!
