I'm new

[sinaasappeltje]

I'm new, Dutch, and loving my '93 MX-3 1.8iV6. I bought it last week, with 89.000km.<p>I've noticed alot of people having ticking engines, and mine does it aswell. They say to fix it, you have to use another oil, pref. thinner. How do I do this? I know how to *add* oil, but not how to change it.. could someone please help?<p>Here's a picture:

Have you never changed your oil before?

That depends on your definition of "changing". I've added oil to the engine, but I've never done a complete change of oil (I've only had a car of my own (a 626 before this mx-3) for 8 months now, mind you ).<p>[ February 28, 2003: Message edited by: sinaasappeltje ]</p>

I would suggest having your oil changed atleast every 5000km.
