They only waived the labour cost .. but I was wondering what does the Battery Protector Oil use for .. :unknown:
Air Filter ? .. So fast need to change ?

wow that expensive, as i inform by SC that i go, for first service only for change engine oil, plug gasket and oil filter which
cost RM114.00 with free labour fee...air filter need to change for 1st service, its ridiculous.

For most SC, they normally change only the gasket, engine oil and oil filter. Anything else besides those mentioned is meant to cheat you. My SC tried to cheat me by charging me RM 50 for compressor oil which I immediately rejected. What a load of crap, my air con is still freaking cold, why do they need the change the oil.

Always remember, you have the right to reject. Reject the air filter and battery oil protector.

sure... thanks for ur feedback...

Guys .. add on this to issue, has anyone here encounter SC representatives asking you to install a Metal Magnet for the Engine ?
Use to absorb those dirty scraps or 'sisa' of the combustion chamber that will destroy your engine ?

@sebastianchan@

what is your mileage?

if it's the 1st or 2nd service, changing air filter, battery protector oil and ATF is not necessary.
usually they will only change the engine oil, plug gasket and oil filter on 1st service and it cost under 115 bucks.
i usually service at Desa Tun Razak near the Puspakom.
call them in advance to check the available date. bring along the service booklet and make sure to come early.
they used to open after 7.45am! just drop the service booklet at the counter and wait for the call.

i've got mine done within 3 hours.

@HughieRmX@
you shouldn't just accept their offer. PESC is well known to coax you into paying more by adding this and that....
especially to inexperience 1st time car owner

Sigh .. Guess I got conned for this one.
Since they keep on insisting to install it for the 10K Mileage service ..

it does useful for older engine. as in those over 50k mileage.
a lady colleague of mine bought her saga blm(1st time owner) and 1st service interval cost over 200 bucks.
guess they might be sweet talking her into changing / install this and that....

quite expensive i think..i just done my 1k service also at Proton SC Bukit serdang...only cost me rm120.. my SA also tell me to meet his friend @ SC so he can give me free oil filter ...after chit chat with their Chief foreman he also offer me to setting the ECU for performance and good FC..have to pay extra for that..

item change ;
-engine oil
-oil filter
-plug gasket
-engine treatment

want to ask u guys...i feel vibration when drive 20kmh-140kmh..i tot some people say saga still steady when drive 160kmh

I have just did my 1k Service...
It took about 1 hour to finish from queuing to collect my car...

they asked me to do this and that and i rejected all of them and i asked them just follow what is in the service book...
no extra things needed...
it cost me RM 113.74
Things that cost me:
Shell Helix Plus HX7 - RM99
Oil Filter - RM 12.22
Gasket Plug, Oil Drain - RM 2.52

The engine oil they gave me is 10w40
but the manual says that the car must use 20w50 and the note in the Manual says that:-
"Using engine oil with a lower API classification will void the warranty"

so, this means that the SC that i went has just void my warranty?
or i can just continue driving it with the current oil of 10w40?

sorry that i asked so many questions... this is my 1st new car... i do not know how to take care of a new car...
i only know how to take care of 20 yrs old car...

Shell Helix ? .. They are using Petronas Engine Oil for my side here. 3 times in a row .. :|

@sebastianchan@
am using that same semi-synth hx7 on my other ride.
which SC you went for? Wakil Proton SC usually using Shell Helix.
as far as i know, PESC is petronas syntium. since it was still semi-synth, should be ok.
kept the receipt as a proved that the service was done by PESC. you may call 'em to get a clearer detail.
