Hi All

The Brookfields has done over 50 miles and I’ve read somewhere that an oil change now is a good idea?

So I’ve just done a nine mile run to warm the oil and drained it.  No nasty surprises apart from some fine black sediment around the magnet in the drain plug. The drained oil seems only mildly discoloured.

Would it be a good idea to drop the sump and gauze at this stage or leave that for the next oil change?

And when should the next change be?

I’m using straight 20W50.

Cheers

Howard
