Good morning,

My service meter shows 30,000 km and not 20,000 km, is that normal?

Good morning,

The meter is set. Mine for example is set to 10,000km but the recommendation is more like 20,000km

The oil change is done with the vehicle lifted??? where are the jack stands?

guy Betting - Resolved on Release Reply

The oil change can actually be done with the vehicle raised, but in this tutorial this is not the case. Other solutions are possible to have space under a vehicle, raise the car on blocks, a pit... Regards
