AutoSaver - Is this recommended workshop

[Zniper]

I would say not recommended... Aft servicing, they gave me another problem which they promised to call me back a few days and until not no news!!! My ignition key stuck inside and they cant giv me a good answer for it... I need to go fix it elsewhere... It's not i gey gao or wat, but u tell me abt responsibility??? Tis is damn irresponsible!!! Even when i asked my fren to ask them when he was there for servicing, they told him same ting to get back to me few days later... But it has been 2 mths fyi!!! Received noting from them... Imo, i have condemned them already.. It's the kaki bukit branch...

Great. Suddenly AS becomes popular.

 

Once, i was at a "recommended" ws. Someone "bark" at me n told me i invest so much in technology.

My rivals dont invest. They will always stay behind me.

 

Not I purposely want to promote.

 

I speak from personal experience which happened yesterday.

 

It's definitely not the best WS in SG, but it's a pleasant experience

[Sabian]

I'm with AS too.

 

All the bs abt the dumb tech equipment. If there's nothing wrong with my ride and I just need a straightforward interval servicing and don't need the tech equipment, charge me so much for fcuk?

I said the same thing. Why must i pay so high when i just need the labour to install the parts? I dont need dianostic.

Im going for my eo change.

Will call AS for appt

Another WS that I can recommend is at upper Thomson road, caltex station. Small but humble WS. Labour is very reasonable and no bs from them.

 

I'm been using them for a long time. Yesterday was the only time I didn't go back to them coz it's 80k KM. Thought I better go to a bigger WS for more complete servicing.

 

In my normal 10k KM servicing, I'm at that caltex station ( together with shell and ESSO stations)

 

Bring my own oil and whatever, they just charge labour.

[Mcf777]

Bro. That caltex ws see car type. If jap car, price budget. I agreed with u.

I also ask my bro to go there for servicing.

[Zilojian]

Uncle Fong promoted to manager. Now left to his men to do the servicing. But overall i heard from my kakis (as i no longer driving toyota) the standard at Defu still very good.

 

For Upper Thomson Caltex, $20 for labour to change EO, plugs and oil filter. Bring your own parts. For cars with bodykits becareful as there is a slope to the workshop.

someone mentioned $20

[OeteM]

My car stalled this morning while driving. Lucky no accident.

 

Drove to Autosaver , quoted me $322 for the repair. Called TCM, quoted me $222 come with warranty of 1 yr or 20k km for the part that was replaced.. Difference $100. Well in the end, drove to TCM and did the repair.

 

I always thought AD will cost more than outside workshop. But it seems not true.

did you check whether it is with labour charges? somtimes these AD will tell u the parts price only havent tell u the labour cost and GST.

Yes. TCM net(including parts, labour, GST) = $222. Autosaver net (including parts, labour, GST) = $322
