Oil and filter change done
« on: 18 February 2009, 08:35 »
Carried out my 5000 mile oil and filter change yesterday when I got home from work. The oil filters abit of a pain to get to but all sorted now sounds so smooth now. Was last serviced at 62,,000 miles and its now done 65,371 so didnt need doing right now but thought I would do it before the remap. Havent been for a run in it yet but sure it will be much better.  :cool:
