That is why I told you that is good practice to check up after them. There were several times that the dealer's mechanic forgot to tighten something or connect something on my car. Glad to hear everything is good to go.

The factory fill is good for 4-5 years, but after the first time you change it, you should change it again every 2-3 years. Don't put any water in it other than distilled.
