Some help here appreciated.

I’m doing a little digging to find out what has been done service wise to my latest acquisition.

I’ve got this sticker (photo below) which maybe refers to service or timing belt, but it’s a guess.

Can anyone translate it for me please?

Every time I've asked someone whom I have assumed could help like this as they're child of an Oriental (choose the appropriate nation) and I know they speak the mother tongue, I've discovered that whilst they are native-fluent they are illiterate in that language ass their parents though it pointless to learn the written script. Good Luck!

The katakana beneath the pink illustration says

Oi ru fi ru ta

Oil filter

There is also a reference to engine oil lower down as well as a month / day.

Red bit - next oil change at 22k km
Just below says oil filter 19k km
Then below is the shop name, followed by date (28/7)

Then white sticker says "oil change date this time" -> "indicative next change" which says 12/3/2021-> 70,880km

Does that help?

Yes, it does, and thank-you!

It’s had a service and oil change, and is in for timing belt and water pump. Although 17 years old, the car has only covered 48,000 miles from new. I can’t find any info ref an age related timing belt change, but i now know it’s been serviced!
