Thanks, that's useful info. My days of clambering around underneath to get at a sump plug are over, I'm thinking I'll get a vacuum pump to aid an oil refresh inbetween indicated services.... seems the Castrol E is only available in 1 litre bottles, pain in the backside!

I found the video very informative so thanks.

Although the D240 like I have doesn't suffer with the oil dilution issues, I still don't believe in leaving the oil for 2 years or 21000 miles, once me having an oil change done when the car was a year old.

Apologies for the hijack, this is something I have been wondering about. Is it commonly agreed that the d240 doesn't suffer from the dilution issue? My d240 is suggesting oil service in 8k ish, putting it at around 16k total. Does that sound usual behaviour for the 240? I'm guessing the twin turbo setup raises temps enough for better passive regen? Interested in views on this and experience of other d240 owners.
