2,000km (=1,200km) service QUESTION!

I just had my first 2,000km (=1,200miles) service done.
They have changed:

Engine Oil - 5W30 (83 21 2 296 489)
Oil filter (11 42 7 854 445)
Transmission Oil - MTF LT-5 (83 22 2 156 969)
Rear differential oil (83 22 9 415 961)


However, they did NOT change the SCREWS for engine oil and diff oil (or at least it is NOT shown on the service report).
Is this a problem? (ie. should I go back and ask them to correct the situation?)

Its not a life or death problem. Maybe a minor annoyance but not the end of the world. Have them do it next time you are around the shop.

Thanks for reminding me to check my receipt/work order. I don't have rear diff oil listed at all on there. Gonna have to call my SA and see if it was done.

For comparison sake, here are my part numbers. I'll use their descriptions.

1 Set oil-filter element 11-42-7-566
1 Screw plug with gas 11-11-7-849-396
7 Motor oil SAE 5W-30 07-51-0-017-954
4 SAF XJ 83-22-1-470-080

They did do my diff oil. It just wasn't obvious to me by the part number and description. No oil plug listed, but as others said, the tech may not have of listed it for whatever reason. If it is the same one, I'm not worried about it as long as the tech cleaned it off and it doesn't leak.
