So it has been less than a 1000 miles since last oil change. I have specifically asked my mechanic to drain it preventively, and was charged for it
Fast forward to now:
The car set for 3 weeks, while I was on vacay (1/4 tank full). I come back and get the "..water in fuel ... see you dealer ..." message.
So I drain the fuel filter housing myself, slightly less than 1/2 liter came out. Picture attached you can see white on the bottom after the water has settled, however a little was spilled when the drain just started so this may not be very accurate.
However the message shows up again. I have reset it 1/2 dozen times however it comes back at seemingly random intervals.
Any ideas on what to do next?
