I have gone into the garage today and when i moved the car i see that there is some oil on the floor

The car has only done 1800 miles.
Does anyone know if this is due to the running in of the car? and when the car goes in for its 6k service do they check all round.

Took the car in at 9 o'clock and picked the car up at 4.30

(i had to call them).It seems that the rocker cover needed to be adjusted (on a car that as done less than 2000 miles

).
Well there was no oil on the floor this morning so they seem to have stoped the leak

.
