Unknown_G7 Neutral Newbie January 18, 2003 Share January 18, 2003 Hi When I went for my last servicing, my mechanic charge me $58 for 4L mineral engine oil w/o oil filter! Is it expensive? I feel like being chop ! Normally how much will the servicing with 4L mineral engine oil and oil filter cost?

Unknown_G7 Neutral Newbie January 19, 2003 Author Share January 19, 2003 You mean that you bought the engine oil and oil filter to the workshop and pay the mechanic labour charge only! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koolaba 1st Gear January 19, 2003 Share January 19, 2003 U can try my mech MW Bros 319 Bradell Rd Caltex Station 62533035 Mech: Ah Wai & Ah Lai $20 for labour charges (excluding filter) if u r bringing ur own oil n filter. Otherwise, u can take their Caltex servicing package. For mineral package, u get: 20W-50 Caltex Havoline Mineral oil API SL Original oil filter 4 pieces of spark plugs (Bosch) - need to top up a bit of $ if ur ride is using resistor spark plugs Price: $58 For me, I usually bring in my own oil n filter. They're v accurate in diagnosing e problem of e car Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbobrick Neutral Newbie January 19, 2003 Share January 19, 2003 That's kinda expensive for mineral oil servicing, did they change any other consumables like air filter or fuel filter? If it's only oil plus labor, forget about going back to that mech Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lester Neutral Newbie January 28, 2003 Share January 28, 2003 Hi there Unknown I dun know of any work shop in particular. One plc I know charging S$10 for labor and bringing in your own hardware is PitStop Garage. 51 Ubi Ave 1 #01-29 Paya Ubi Ind Park S 408934 Tel: 68444081 hp: 90699960 Look for Alvin Tell him Lester of Jeepnation introduced you. Call and ask for pricing before you go down. Cos I've not been in contact with him for a very long time already. I cannot confirm if the amount is as listed. Enquire what is their preferred oil and spark plug choice if you decide to use theirs. Justify if it is economical to do so. Good luck!
