Well now the jobs been completed I can report that 9.5lts of engine oil was drained which included a filter change.

As the ‘MMI dipstick’ was always showing full I thought I’d put a little less back in as I never knew whether it was just right or overfull so it was refilled with 9lts of Quantum Longlife III 5W/30 Fully Synthetic.

When the oil level was checked immediately after the oil change the MMI dipstick was showing full once more which led me to believe it had been overfilled to some extent but now that I’ve done a few miles the level is now showing as 75% up the MMI dipstick so at least I am sure and now have peace of mind that I have the correct amount in there.

Hope that helps anyone else treading the same path.

Kind regards,
