Today I changed oil and filter on my daily, a wee Corsa D, good enough for my needs £30 yearly tax. I got into the habit of changing my oil and filter every six months, when I was working as a carer, obviously more miles, and then there was quite a lot of start stop, all of which can be hard on the vehicle. I keep a note of my dates and mileage in a wee old diary and the miles I’ve done since the last change…….just over a thousand……. shocked


I'm an old git & happy with it,most of the time

Oooh. That's dedication Jim. But I'm sure the car loves you for it. wink

I did an oil change in the Coupe recently as I'd left it a couple of years, because of lockdown we weren't going anywhere. I think it only did a couple of thousand miles. Oil was still black though.
