Should be at least double that - more like 15k or 12 months

This will be an "oil service".

Is it possible that diesel is being dumped into the engine oil due to a diet of short runs from cold etc (also leading to higher AdBlue use) and that resulting deterioration of that oil is causing the car to tell you that it needs an oil change service? I'd be getting the dealer to check that. Only Range Rovers since 1988 |

Right, managed to find the service info menu now. Never tried looking without the engine turned on, and it doesn't show up when it's running!

OK, dealer says it's a known issue for my car once they took the registration. Apparently there is a software issue that mis-calculates the details that will fix this.

Be very careful. These messages are usually triggered by oil dilution with diesel as a result of incomplete DPF regeneration cycles. Your car may be crying out for an early oil change (which is usually paid for by LR) as the oil may now be knackered |

Agree with CS and Red Merle re. the oil dilution. Very dependant on type of journeys.

Do bear in mind that the AdBlue and DPF are two completely separate systems on your car.
