Dodgy Car Servicing?
I have just had my car back after being serviced by a Reputable Ford main dealer.
When I looked at the oil on the dipstick it was black and so convinced that the oil hadn’t been changed I went back to the garage to complain.
The service receptionist told me they often get people querying whether or not oil changes had been carried out because the oil they use is quite dark to begin with.
The service manager (who is also a neighbour of mine) assures me the oil was changed and tried to convince me that the oil they use is very dark and Diesel engines tend to produce black oil again very soon after they have been changed.
I’m still not convinced – but because he is a neighbour I have taken his word that the service was carried out fully.
I looked at everything else – air filter, fluid levels and these have been changed or topped up. The engine oil filter sits inside a canister so I can’t tell if it has been changed or not.
Is there a way I can check if the oil really was changed. This is a reputable ford main dealer so I would be very suprised if it hadn’t been done yet I still have my doubts or am I just being paranoid?
