They will change the oil ? Or I have to change it?

Indeed. Far worse you could have seized your engine bottom and top end. Do keep your observations posted along with the prognosis.



Sad to see back to back and probably even worse effects in the 2017 lot. All said and done, one way to find that coolant is mixing with oil is the exhaust smell. Usually coolant when burnt have a distinct sweet smell to them, it's hard for me to explain, but it has a distinct smell, which is clearly distinguishable from the carbon and emissions smell. After your engine is ridden for some KMS check the exhaust and the engine and observe if you smell anything different, if you do, then yes we have coolant burn. There are many cases with coolant burn, but for east of understanding, we'll keep this one point.

Secondly, your engine oil color, if it's turning whitish and see frothing or foaming after the engine is ridden for some 15 plus kms, you can confirm the coolant is ever so slightly entering the crankcase or via the cylinder gasket. This will be a sort of slow poison, as the effects won't be immediate, they are gradual and can kill the motor when you least expect.

I'd also suggest you to do a leak down test to identify the issue. Your SVC can help you with this.


Now that you're topping the radiator, make sure the radiator is bled, pre-mixed coolant used and observe for a few days and do keep your observations posted here.

Good luck.

Cheers!

Mostly I believe SVC will change the oil and you have to pay for that .
Anyway I will come to know in a day or two.
As I’m awaiting delivery of my duke by tomorrow.
Will keep you updated .

Both Indiranagar and Langford Road showrooms are good. Both have decent reputation and good guys. I had purchased it from Langford road, had a pretty satisfying experience.

Thank you for the quick response.
Also could you please comment on the best service centers in Bangalore ?

Do they allow to be with the bike when it is getting serviced especially during the initial few services?

Is the rim not covered under warranty?

Is the rim not covered under warranty?

No...i was told that warranty doesn't cover rims

If it's a Coolant mixing issue due to the gasket problem they don't generally charge for the new oil. It comes as part of manufacturing defect. Just make sure that they flush it clean.
