My dealer said to check the oil up to 1000 miles - he said that it would use 0.5 - 1 litre bedding in - At 1500 miles the dipstick reading is still in the same spot. 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

Mine needs some at 1000 miles. I am curious though whether the standard oil is Full Synthetic as the only Castrol 5w 30 oil with the right spec numbers here in Australia is Castrol R full synthetic.
