When the 'computer' told me to add a litre, I did just that it and it was ok.

Dont bother with stealership prices. Get your oil from opie oils

Had to go to the dealer to get the special M oil and they said only put in half.

Glad I did as after half an hour the indicator was now showing full. Would have hated to have over filled it by that amount.

Just thought I would warn in case someone else get a simular problem.

Anyone know what would have happened if the half a litre extra went in?

Will keep checking more regular from now on to see if anything faulty.

Cheers
