Drain= drain out the old brake fluid. Replace= putting in new brake fluid. Bleed= remove any bubbles in the new fluid.

I believe some site sponsors here are good enough for the job.. and won't cost an arm and a leg

Bro I think there is the transmission oil + filter + gasket +plug......

 

Better to check around cos the prices do differ quite substantially....but C & C is really expensive....their charges range between S$1.1k - S$2K

 

Yes! Change transmission oil includes changing the filter & gasket!

Just to add on to unker's list...

Radiator fluid...3 lit

Fuel filter....This should be changed if u use a lot of M'sia petrol. Otherwise can wait till 100k km.

Recommendation by manufacturer is 15k.

Somehow locally, almost all workshop sticks to 10k regardless of manufacturer's recommendation of 10k, 12k or 15k for Jap, BMW & MB respectively (only list what my limited knowledge have).

Some individuals even go for 5k interval (i was one of those in the past due to heavily modded ride).

I would stick with manufacturer's recommendation, ultimately IMO it is your choice.

Thanks! I'll likely stick with the 15k interval and be kinder to my wallet. Haha

I wonder if they program the next servicing to show up at 10k interval though.

Bro Atlantis, your normal servicing is ok to follow the schedule.....from my experience, its best to do engine oil change every 5,000km - 6,000km (plus engine oil filter). It will really make a lot of difference for your car engine.

 

Have always been doing this for all my rides.....it really makes a difference.... for one of my rides (Toyota Picnic) which I kept the longest....the Agent's mechanics commented that though my ride is 8 years old, the engine sound is so much more silent and trouble free compared to a 3 year old similar model.

 

Really makes a difference.... though it might cost abit more but overall it saves you money in the long run as its means less engine related issues.....

 

 

Just my 2 cents  :)

Do you bring your own oil and parts or leave it to them?

When I did my 60k km major servicing, I brought my own brake rotors/pads & engine and gear box mountings
