Oil meter fluctuation

Yep I use that one too! And so, I hope, did the OPc when they serviced HD1 last week.

Dave, most amusing, but think Jamie might be ketching up with you at Bedford, be wary of strange ketchup bottles flying in your direction (and he won't even be drinking!)

I was assured by the service bloke at OPC Solihull that it was fine, but just looks a bit worrying!

As an aside, I can't believe that Porsche did not fit an oil temp gauge to the 996... so much more useful for preserving the health of the engine that the pointless battery condition thingy.
