Thanks very much for all of the feedback, but this does raise another few questions...

1. If I choose to use for example Redline 5w40, will this void the warranty?
2. Can I ask the dealer to use my oil rather than his?
3. If you're changing oil more regularly than the service reminder tells you, are you also changing the filter at the same time?
4. I've changed oil and filter many times on previous cars before, but my Jaguar requires . a kind of pump to suck the old oil out; there is no sump plug. How difficult is changing the oil (and filter) on the M2?
5. If I want to change the oil (and maybe filter) myself before the regular service reminder tells me, how can I know when it's going to go off again a week after I did the change, and the dealer is going to want to change my brand new oil!?!
