First service question?

[Sterner Regnix]

Hi,

I had a gent come round to look at buying my e85 yesterday. He seemed quite happy but said there wasn't any records of an initial oil service around 200 miles.

I've only seen this on motorbikes after around 5-600 miles you change the oil for fully synth but not for cars.

Is he right? Should it have had an oil change at 200 miles? It's an N52 engine

Thanks

No first service would have been anywhere from 13-19k

Maybe he was crossing his wires & thinking on the running in service for M's ?

Does the M require an initial running in oil change?

yep

Ah, right. That'll please him... and me... although that means he'll probably offer to buy my car... and I have mixed feelings about that... .... ....
