Servicing alternatives

[THEWHO]

at 30km, it seems a little early.

imo there is no hard and fast rule on when one should change the brake pad.....it also depends largely on the driver driving style, excessive braking will lead to higher wear and tear.

 

and there is sensors to prompt you to change when it is time to do so.

 

i only changed it when the sensor prompted me to and when i felt that the braking is not as reactive as before..lol

Mine at 56k mileage (car only 1yr 19mths) n still hv 30% left on the pads..... This means I what kind of driver ?

Guys, need to do 90K km servicing, thinking to go to Chip Soon.

 

Anyone experience with bringing in car after lunch and getting it before day's end?

 

Thanks.

Ok never mind I'll answer my own question then.

Brought car in today around 330pm and was initially requested to come back tomorrow morning but Jason later informed me one car is leaving so can wait awhile.

90K servicing completed around 545pm so was happy with their efficiency.

Cost me 450$. Oil / filter change. Air cleaner. Aircon filter. Brake fluid. Labour cost. Very happy.

First time here, highly recommended.

60K servicing at Chip Soon - $1.1k

No change of brakes or rotors or anything except engine oil, brake oil, filters n spark plugs.... is this reasonable?

Is ex in my opinion have u try checking with our site sponsor like Top93??

[tsktsk]

Expensive but their prices should be broken down in a receipt. What's the most ex part? I didn't have spark plug and every other ones u indicated only cost me only $450 with change.

Exactly... how much can spark plugs costs?

I will go check out each part from other suppliers and then get another mechanic to fix up.

Not sure if anyone been to Carewell Auto at Sin Ming... their quotes seems more reasonable as compared to Chip Soon...

With reference to my earlier post...without airfilter and aircon filter replacements...Chip Soon quoted $950 excluding tax.

Whereas Carewell quoted $800 excluding tax.

Any comments by bro who had been there before?

Bros, any advice where to find the list of items which should be looked at / changed for 60K service?

 

Thanks
