A little concerned

Post by JR’S TSI »

Hi guys
I have a question!
What should I look for ?
I just received my car back from a 30000km service and when I popped the hood it seems as if it was never touched as I can see the ditch and dust in the engine compartment ?
What should I look for to see if service really was done ?

Check colour of oil? What was said to be done via the invoice? Check those items. Remember they will not clean the engine bay.

Most modern cars only do oil changes up until 45/60k services, so checking the oil is your only option
Oil filter housing should be the easiest to spot if its been removed/cleaned
