    I change my D4 3.0ltr every 10K about. Went a bit longer when I was on a trip and a bit shorter on another occasion as I was bored at home. Every 20K I get the independent (normally DazzaTd5) to change and do what's necessary otherwise.
    I'm a bit of a fanatic about clean oil which may stem from the fact I worked in a place moons ago where the boss actually employed a bloke to just keep his race car running..... that bloke convinced me the cost of an oil change was well worth it for an engine/g/box/diff etc longevity.
    Plus I used the free to me company oil .......

    I just do 10,000 or 12 months. Whichever comes first. These days it's 12 months
    Oil is cheap.

    So I committed and I have purchased a silver 2010 TDV6 2.7l with 124k on the clock, outside and inside was near perfect great service history with a few standard parts everyone hear had said check, which had already been done so all in all very happy and now part of the green oval club

    Not sure if he has retired/sold his business yet but Don is a long term LR and RR man who drove a Rangie 322 last I heard. He has also been on aulro for many years, but quiet recently. I can't recall the name of his Indie business in Toowoomba, nor find his number, but someone there will know.

    If you do use him, give Don my regards - I bought my LSE TD5 from him (his personal car) after he converted it and before he started RAD Motors.
    Flew over, hopped in it and drove it straight back here no hassles.
