Service - P1 vs FP1

[buckmoy]

Hiya all -

 

Brilliant forum skills recently by the way lads - I got some top oil off Oilman (thanks, v prompt delivery) and a bluetooth adaptor for the car kit off Mr F (also v prompt, plays my ring tone through the sound system - nice surprise).

 

Now - sent my z in for its 1st service - I'm racking up some miles so I went for FP1. Came back and they've given it a P1. Was a bit miffed (also the bloke who dropped the car off had parked it with one wheel on the f*kin kerb)

 

Anyway - I called em and they said "there is no difference between a P1 and an FP1 when its the first service". Is this a crock?

 

Many thanks for your ongoing help.

Never heard of an FP1 mate??? Is this where they flush the engine before putting the new oil in? If so they offered me this on my first, said I'd have it and they forgot to do it. The girls at the service desk did tell me quietly that it made hardly any difference whatsoever though.

always advisable to take pictures of your wheels and bodywork before service. Just in case anything happens you can show it was fine before they had it.
