People look at me daft when I check my oil weekly, and tyres fortnghtly. They don't get that you might actually lose oil between services. If it doesn't bing, blink or talk them, then it is all well. What happened to getting a feel of a car and some mechanical synergy, and routine checks and maintenance? if you get a feel of a car, you get to know new noises and vibrations, and get a sense of whether it will be expensive or urgent to get sorted, or whether it will wait until next service/other repair/dry day. unless there is a warning light/tone people just don't get it. -- The poster formerly known as Skodapilot. http://www.bouncing-czechs.com
