Answer 1

Full service is all fluids brakes part sevice is air filter oil filter iol change some times brake fluid

Answer 2

Depends on who does the service. If it's done at the make's dealer it will be all the things specified in the manufacturers schedule. A basic annual service would check everything but only replace oil and oil filter. Extended service would add air filter, fuel filter, spark plugs, brake fluid, cam belt if scheduled &c. Things like brake pads & discs only if worn. Of course if you go to a disreputable mechanic you may get non of the above, but you might get a wipe with an oily rag if you're lucky

Answer 3

A standard service would be oil oil filter plugs air filter that's on a 10.000 after that it go's up to include fuel filter alt belt pas belt a/c belt, depends on the car and servicing times

Answer 4

A "standard" service various between car to car, and mileage covered and age, and what engine is in it, so the best way to find out is to ask a main dealer what gets done.
Oil filters generally done at every service.
Air filters approx 3 years or 30,000 miles.
Spark plugs can be over 60,000 miles.
Timing belts 40, 60, 100,000 miles?
There is too many variables to accurately tell you what you want to know I'm afraid.
