    Are any i4 owners considering an oil change after running in?

    yeah, sounds super sensible. thanks for the tip about Bell and Colvill. could be a nice drive to head across and get the oils refreshed - do they use all the good quality ones? also, do you know if there's any way to update the software yourself from home?

    Running in procedure

    I recently bought the i4 version from Lotus Kent and the rep said there's no need to follow the much talked about sub 4,000 revs run in procedure.

    Are any i4 owners considering an oil change after running in?

    I recently bought the i4 version from Lotus Kent and the rep said there's no need to change the engine oil after 500/1000 miles as AMG Merc run-in the engine in their factory so when it goes into the Emira, its already done 400 miles of breaking in and has fresh oil added.. so not required on...

    Ahhh i see! So there is a way to drain the water away if you are careful and allow it time to flow down some proper channels before raising to the top? That’s good to know! Thank you
