when I got mine the fluid was also black , I bought a 60 litre barrel of oil for it and dumped 4 litres , then refilled with same .
drove it 100 miles and did the same ,
I did that 14 times with 100 miles between and now its the same colour going in as coming out .
my plan is to do x2 sump dumps per year as the oil is hardly expensive ......
