Yes, I tried it with and without the mudflaps. MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

Apologies for regurgitating a thread, but I got a bit of a shock today when accessing my in control app which showed my Sport was due a service.

I ensured it was serviced by the dealer when I purchased it in October with 10K miles. Two weeks ago, when checking the in car service menu it stated the next service was due in 5500 miles. The current mileage is 16000.

I can't get my head around how it can go from what I roughly expected to see two weeks ago, to where I am today.

Most of my journeys are +20 miles, all dual carriageway/motorway with very little stop start.

Your comments appreciated.

Send a sample of your engine oil off to Millers oils for an analysis, to see what the actual fuel dilution is.

I did, and it was the reason I sold my car. (over 8% dilution - a critical figure, despite the dealer refusing to change to oil). Absolutely would never have one of these out of OE warranty, period.

Dealers don't actually physically check the oil dilution like the Milers analysis - they rely on a computer algorithm. Which is about as reliable as all other JLR software IMHO. MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

Just had the 3rd annual service on mine, total bill was just short of R16k

they did replace the brakes though, which was R9k on their own.

not looking forward to the date when the care plan expires  --
