If something is wrong with their work, I expect them to rectify it (as they've done in the past with minor things).

Grille block gone ; no more coasting and it's already been 240km since the last DPF regeneration.
I hope this doesn't mean it's not suited for hypermiling.


Checked the oil cold (as the manual states): too much.
Checked it hot, a couple minutes after shutting down (meaning it'll read low) : still too much.

It's not indicating slightlyover MAX, it's indicating more than the distance between MIN and MAX , over MAX

I'll check it again (cold) tomorrow, and will probably take it to the dealer for a quick oil swap in advance of the scheduled maintenance.
By the looks of it, it's got more than 1L extra oil/BD in there - but normally it takes only 3.7L (about 1 US gallon) of oil.
