Default Oil Service

Ok, the warning came on ... Can't see what the big deal is to change the oil. So off to my favorite, Kwick Fit ...

They did the change, but I noticed the guy on the diagnostics terminal so I popped round. He was saying I think this has worked. I got on the MMI and showed him the service setting, reset nicely no problem.

Switched to the Oil level .. Oh dear, overfilled. So fair dues, he immediately shut down the engine, tried to suck some oil out, no go as their oil sucker pipe was too big. drained some oil down through the sump plug and topped it back up.

Everything A OK.

Apparently their manual says 8.2L but in reality it should be 7.5L with a top up. So watch out for that one.

Anyway ...total bill for the oil change = £53

So I'm happy with that.
