My car is a DS3 THP model,
I have it now for one and a half years, haven't made any modifications at all yet. I 've done the first oil and filter change at 4,300km ( i think is around 3000miles), but now the 6 months time have passed. I called the citroen dealer and they told me i don't need to take in for an oil change since i only covered 2500kilometers from the oil change. They also told me that as long as i don' t drive it under extreme conditions (frequent start-stops,having the engine run at iddle for too much time,using the car for towing) its ok to leave the oil for around 10months (or 7,500kilometers).
I've read the posts of other people having a lot of problems/issues with the thp engine. My car so far does not have any problem at all but i would like to be cautios about it.
If i leave the oil for a bit longer in my car as the dealer suggested would that be safe/ ok ?
