Ok changed the oil only trouble is what to do with the old oil.
Being enviro friendly I don't want to put it in the bin. So anyone know where to take it to be disposed of ?

I don't think they generally do. Company's have to pay for disposal of tyres, and when you get tyres fitted there's usually a charge on top for disposal of the old ones.

This leads to fly tipping and arsen. It also leads to ME being forced to cut them up, bag them and sling them in the household waste skip at the recycling centre!

Go to your nearest tyre place and lob them over the fence onto their pile when no one's looking. Laughing
