Guess I will never know, car has only done 3,000 miles since last service.

Going back to the stealers (dealers) tomorrow for them to check and drain some oil out.

Bit of a ball ache now, another 25 mile trip and probably 2 hours hanging around.

Needs sorting though as I am a bit of an anorak when it comes to my cars.

Thanks for all the feedback will let you know the outcome tomorrow.

Yes was over filled.
They had put 7 litres in.

Just checked my invoice they have installed Castrol 0w 30 edge B oil.
Hope this is ok says in the handbook and on oil filler cap 0w 20 oil to be used.

You might want to take that up with them too. That way they're responsible if you get any problems with the engine. The specified deviation from 0W20 is 5W20, not 0W30.
