Out of curiosity, which engine do you have?

I've got the 30d (3.0L Diesel), and I haven't changed the oil on my G05 yet. I bought a new Oil filter (same part # as yours), will probably change the oil in Jan 2020 - as I'm still going through the running-in stage (only done around 2,100km) - but expect to have closer to 5000k by the end of Jan as we go on our long summer drives...

It will be interesting if you have the 40i - and the used the same filter for both gas and diesel engines.
i have the 40i and both engines probably use the same filter, there was something about that in the technical training document.

what i dont know is how much oil i need for the 40i engine.
