They can't get it in to the workshop this week and one of my mates who does a lot of the mechnical work for me is overseas.
She's sitting in the driveway 80% packed but now I can't decide whether to call it or not. Dammit!

Have you serviced it, did you use a friction modified oil (castrol VMX80)?

I didn't but I assume my mate did who last changed the fluids. I trust him as he's worked for Guests down here (he's a good mechanic) and has owned patrols for 20 years. Trouble is I can't get hold if him to find out because he's in Switzerland somewhere for the next couple of weeks.
