1. I jet washed the salt off my car today. Did not notice the drivers door open despite being closed at the start of wash. Yes, the window popped down and water popped in......at jet wash speed!
Lesson learnt, do not have the key near the car when jet washing as the water can trigger the proximity sensor, doh and doh again


2. Checked the oil as per the 2000 rpm procedure.......needs oil as the reading is towards the lower segment......but did not add oil. Checked it again after 200 mile as per procedure......now above top line ( but no oil added ).
Did 100 mile today, checked oil, app, and at full mark.
So do not believe readout until checked a number of times. Wonder if this is the reason owners overfill the oil......miss-leading readouts?
