What a difference
I had my auto oil changed today by Col at Stirling MG,what a difference it has made. The gearbox was never notch or troublesome before,but now its quieter and smoother. The old oil was brown and only just over two litres came out,now its at the correct level and ticket boo! Thanks Col Next weekend I need to do engine oil and oiled fuel filter change

Hi Rich.
Did you do get the full amount changed or just what Rover recommended.

In my experience you don't need to do a full change, just dropping the oil and refilling transforms the changes.

I did the whole lot for him using the tips from Beinet............................sadly he had not accounted for the fact that someone might have put the oil cooler pipes on the opposite way round there was less of a slick when the Torrey Canyon ran aground
