Today I went for Yodo's first service at 22,250 klms.Maxidot say's it need's doing now so now it's done.Now for the point of this post.I normally change his oil at 10,000,i know but that's me.He's only had the one as I hung on for the main dealer service to make sure we have no warranty probs at a later date.All's well say's the nice mechanic,what a lovely clean car.Had no need to top anything else up as you keep everything spot on he say's,even your tyre pressure was perfect.Great say's i handing over my 105 euros ( 15% discount) as nothing else needed doing.Oh yes it bloody did.Arrive home,Yodo put in garage and now i see the oil drips on the drive.Filter housing weeping.Ok,nip it down and drip gone.Hmmm,think i'll check the level,as you would.Nearly a quarter of a pint too much,that's a lot when the book stresses DO NOT OVERFILL.This is a skoda garage for gawds sake,skoda,seat and vw.Just goe's to prove,if it's worth doing,do it yourself.So glad i had my new pela sump sucker to hand.Now all that's to be done is clean up the drippy mess left under the bonnet,that's tomorrow afternoon taken care of then.
