For all of you that do self service, have any of you cut a hole in the under tray, so that you can change the oil without removing it, to remove the sump plug for oil changes.

Apart from servicing every 10K , the car has cost £29 for a sensor, that took 3 mins to change, it would have been free if i had gone up to Edinburgh to the dealer and waisted 1.5 gallons of fuel and waited 4 hours, original break pads where changed at 50K they might need changing next week when it goes in to my local tyre centre, where they have an ex VW mechanic who started on his own after the dealer closed, it passed its taxi test last month with no advisories, got shot of the original OME tyres as soon as I bought it,at 8 k., and fitted cross climates, so here is to another 100k
