Default Re: Dealership oil, yes or Nah....

Hi Everyone,
My wife and myself brought a MC Mondeo new in 2012. Its a late build 2011 and we brought it when still living in Sydney.

I was serviced in Sydney till we moved down the South Coast at the time, and ever since then i have changed the oil, oil Filter and Air Filter myself any thing else such as Brakes, or any thing else it goes to the Mechanic.

We have been every where in that car with 379,726 on the clock and its still going strong.
The one thing i have never changed is the Brand of Oil since new and that is Valvoline Full synthetic Syn Power FE 5 W 30.

The cars getting on now but i don't trust many mechanics with it. The one time i did take it to a bloke for an oil change he didnt tighten the sump plug enough and he did the oil filter to tight, and broke the seal on the oil Filter and it was dripping oil so that was it for me, i just do it myself and at least i know its done the right way.
