So I was cleaning the car yesterday and as you do......checked the oil level

Quite suprised that the oil level is low!! Infact it's not really that far off from the 'minimum level'

Should this be covered under TLC? Can I get it changed for nothing? Should I get a full oil change done if I have to pay before the new service or am I ok to 'top up' oil levels!???

Cheers in advance

This won't be covered by TLC, just topping up yourself should be fine. Keep a note of the
mileage so you can work out the consumption if it goes low again.

Some people are like a Slinky ........ not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you shove them down the stairs
