I can see alot of cut-throat price.

Air filter - This can be bought at tesco for RM20
Spark Plug - This can last at least 80,000 km. Dont really need to change
Brake fluid - depends.Do you feel severe brake fade? If not, leave it
Transmission oil - Should be changed since its a vital component

You can specify what parts to change and what not to. They wont question you. Ask them for the full quotation during servicing and slash off items that you feel are not required

Labour fee for brake bleeding - WTF, should be included in RM50 labour charge

Speaking bout that,my viva is almost due for 4th service too. I bought a tesco perodua genuine filter for RM18.90 paper type. Performs and identical to original. Why spend RM50 for something similar.

4th service so i'm assuming its 20k KM which is major service
i think the price is ok...for SC service
since you're still under warranty
if u service outside...warranty will be void

so far i never did any major service on my myvi, will do my major service at 60k km soon...
anyway, here the previous / current experiences to maintain myvi by my own efforts after 3rd service...

1. Engine Oil (Semi Syn API SM 4L)
I using eneos 5w-30, just RM105...

2. Element S/A (Oil Filter)
Can get it RM8 from spare part shop only...

3. Air Filter
RM15 OEM air filter from spare part shop

4. Transmission Oil GL-4 80W (2.20L)
I using motul fully syn RM130, can last 100k km

5. Spark Plug (D55D) (4 pcs)
I using iridium spark plug RM170, can last 100k km
assumed every 30k km have to change spark plug, rather go for iridium instead...

6. Radiator Coolant (2 bottles)
I will change it at 60k km, toyota coolant 2 litre Rm20 only

7. Gasket Drain Plug
No need change, highly believe SC wont change it too...

8. Brake Fluid (2 bottles)
i never add any brake fluid since the day i got my myvi, going for major service 60k km and do bleeding...

9. Battery Water
Buy outside RM1 per bottle

10.Labour Charge
I DIY change engine oil and oil filter by my own efforts...

11.Labour Charge for Replace Radiator Coolant
Can DIY...

12.Labour for Brake Bleeding System

so stuffs like transmission oil, spark plug you not going to change during your 60,000km service ?

i changed my GB oil and spark plug @ 30k km...
means both can last till 100k km at least...

it must have been messy ! i watched video on how to change the oil. dont think i can do it on my own. lol

u can if u have the proper tools
it's better to go to places where they have the tools to do it

either u jack the car or customized a small ramp...
for me, i use a small ramp instead as free hassle to jack up the car...

the tools included wrench (open drain plug), oil filter wrench (can buy it at spare part shop), steel bar for oil filter wrench (can buy it at hardware shop) and customize used bottle in order to pour engine oil in easier method... but the most difficult is the part to lay under the car engine bay as have limited space to reach the drain plug... the reasons i change engine oil is bcos i want to drain MOST of the used engine oil by overnight, i dont want mix the used and new engine oil... as the SC, they will screw back the drain plug as fast as possible to finish work in the shortest time...

anyway, unless u dont mind the warranty issues u can buy ur own parts for necessary services only and service outside which is cheaper and faster than SC...

here the parts i used for DIY...

By the way does myvi manual 1.3 needs to add battery water ? i dont see the cap to turn so to add battery water.

means kena pawn
MF no need add battery
but u could say need add
so kena overcharge

hehe...my myvi need to service for 20k km nxt week liao...
already standby rm400 for it....
since the car still under warranty..what to do...

its not xpensive anyway ... and u can have 3yrs warranty for it...

for me the price is not expensive....
if u compare with other T&H service fee...u will
(luckily i never bought a T car before)....

ahh.. thanks for the comments.

if i dont like the brands use in P2 SC, can i bring my own stuff and ask them to use it on my car ?

5w-30 is semi syc... semi syc more than enough for compact car and travel less than 5000km within 3 months...

gkl83, you say the gasket drain plug dont have to change. but i see myvi is always charging me for the drain plug in the first 3 services.

i think i can opt not to have it changed, cant i ?

if that rm5 plug fail, oil leaks out..gg.com.my

RM400 would be the roughly price for a major service

Added on July 17, 2011, 6:47 pmi dn't know abt p2
but some p1 SC allows u to bring your own engine oil
only engine oil

---

Added on July 17, 2011, 6:48 pmthe truth is...they didn't change
they just reuse it back
why didn't change...becuz the drain plug is stainless steel...it can be reuse countless time
but they still charge us for it
well...apparently no one complain be4

yeah i think they are marking the gasket drain plug. if they see that theres inconsistency with that marking then know that you have serviced your car outside and void your warranty.

thats why they change it every time. thats just what i think.

unfortunely SC wont do marking on drain plug after changed engine oil service... i think warranty will void if u exceed the recommended service interval (either 3 months+ / 5000km), so you wont have chances to service at outside...

anyway, u can get the drain plug gasket from spare part shop also and change it when necessary...

err...no
even in official SC...they also didn't change it
like i said...it's stainless steel
the mechanic will only plug it back only
they never changed it but they charge us as if they change it

agreed... it just look alike screw washer...
here the picture of the drain plug gasket...


unless u request them u want to get back your USED gasket, so they may change for u with a new 1...

coz i see yours is slightly more expensive than what perodua has to offer, and MyVi facelift now only requires services every 10,000 km within 6 months after the 3rd service...

bcos SC selling higher price on their engine oil, or should say selling higher price for ALL spare parts... for the same things, u may get cheaper from outside...

also, the p2 engine oil grouping level may no that good enough compare to other brand, such as fully syc engine oil can sell RM100++ too but of cos the chemical material contained in engine oil no that much... like the shell petrol between normal RON 97 and V-power (Ron 97 too with additional chemical)

Hi. I'm using Myvi SE 1.5 model. My mileage now is 82000km. I guess it now due for it next major service. What should I change? Do I need to change timing belt or is it myvi using chain belt? I go through the manual but it doesn't specify it. FYI I no longer servicing it in perodua SC. Felt the price is a bit cekik darah.

hi forumer ,

i just found out this thread which is not yet closed and i do have some question as well

Is that possible someone provide me a link for the current price list for MYVI car service right now ??

I hope someone will answer my question here instead of creating a new thread

thank you

You can take the price in perodua website as reference?
If u have a myvi maybe u can state your mileage and which service.

by the way ~ the price is much different from the workshop i go

let take an example this site http://www.perodua.com.my/service-maintenance/myvi/100

I am wonder why it does not list down the price for like transmission oil , power steering fluid , brake pad and etc etc ..

a lot of things is miss out over there ..

I still can't found a complete service price list on internet -.-!!

if u still want ur warranty... just service at perodua..

perodua service center price is still ok compare to others...
such as proton.

their engine oil price is nt much different from outside...

the gold bottle perodua engine oil. only available in perodua which is SM grade... those perodua engine oil outside only SL grade which is silver bottle.

hi shelby , thank you for comment here . To answer your question above , of course my car is not under warranty , it had been about 6 years old @.@

I am planning to bring my car for full services but i just want to get some advice and if possible the list of price list

Anyway ~ how much will it cost for full services ?

I think full service at Perodua for few hundred bucks including materials is reasonable and surely all original parts guaranteed.
For me I DIY a few things and let Perodua do up the rest which I don't want to do.
DIY myself.
1) Replace brake fluid annually (I use Bosch DOT4) I believe the original was DOT 4 and not DOT 3 judging from yellow color. I do NOT bleed brake fluid, I replace by pumping everything out at 4 sides.
2) Replace air filter. Buy outside original at RM18 only.
3) Replace with Toyota Long Life Coolant, RM20/bottle. every 2-3 years replace.
4) Replace spark plugs at 25k KM, check and re-gap at 10k. Buy NGK outside RM37 only.
5) Service and inspect the front and rear brakes. Mine still ok.
6) Already due - replace power steering fluid. They use ordinary ATF Dexron 3. Easy, Suck out from bottle and replace new, do it twice.
I instruct Perodua only to replace oil and AT oil (when necessary) and whatever their 10-20 point check.

Actually all these jobs can be learnt and done by anyone physically fit. I'm approaching 60 and I'm still at it. In those days, some of the above jobs were detailed out in owner's manual. Common sense tell you if its detailed out in manual, with the right tools, any owner can do it. Now there's Youtube, look up some maintenance jobs and learn from there. Don't say dunno how to do or its blardi filthy job.

if out of warranty. just service outside lo....

engine oil you still can buy from perodua.. i still buying from them service outside.

full service.

gearbox oil - outside got (so buy outside lo)
air filter - outside also got. so buy lo

engine oil filter and engine oil - i normally buy from perodua..

brake oil - just go bosch dot 4 lo

brake pad- buy outside also

aircond filter - outside cheaper so outside lo

for total, i dont know how much... but labor cost if service this all should be less than 100

last time i drive nissan sunny.. i change the engine oil myself... that time castrol cheapest oil rm 30++ only...

nowadays.. new car... nt dare ad

Trust me, its all the same procedure for those jobs.
During my time, Castrol GTX was only RM17. Mobil 1 just entered the market at about RM60 something. Spark plugs were RM2.50 each.
As for common type spark plugs, they remain exactly the same engineering design except for sized down. Cost reduction, that's all, nothing improved.
There's no harm done to replace the oil yourself. I used to drain the oil when back from work and let it drain to next morning, just install new filter, plug the sump, fill in new oil, go to work. 5 minutes job.

usually how much it charge for a normal service for auto gearbox myvi ??


i feel like having a bit difficult when i want to switch from P to D .. the process of changing gearbox gear is not smooth @.@ and got little bit of sound too . i am so worry about that ..

should i service ???? if yes how much normally it charge in KL area

you may do that but when it comes time for warranty, they have the right to say that you did not service your car with them and therefore better check if it will void the 5 years warranty that you have...

Last time I saw the price for the ATF is RM46.20, labor for ATF change was part of the overall labor cost.
Since my wife' car is also out of warranty, am planning to buy and change ATF outside. What brand shall I look if I want the same used in SC?
They never mention the ATF brand. For the engine oil its easy because I always brought back the excess with the container.

One more thing, according to service manual, ATF is recommended to be changed every 40kkm.
But why SC always replace it at every 20kkm for my wife' car?
Worse is, in the service record I found that they once change it after 10kkm.
So lucky for them back then I was not a husband yet to check all this.
Same with the spark plug, ridiculously change every 20kkm?

Well Im not in position to advise you this and that since it's your car. My myvi is still being serviced by SC since 2008. I brought my car once to outside garage to change to Torco oil but the place is not convenient la. Air minum tarak, majalah kalau ada pun rabak, no newspapers, no wifi or even TV. Even the display gallery pun takde to kill the time. Worse as I am a Muslim, place to perform solat pun takde. At SC, i got them all.

Price is a bit expensive I dont mind, people wanna get paid too. Theyre not that expensive.

Just service yourself. Get the parts from spare part shops. Changing engine oil, spark plugs, transmission oil, radiator coolant is very easy.
I think you can opt to pass several changes as listed like the sparkplugs, coolant, brakefluid. All the price for parts are expensive and on top of that their labour is also very very expensive.

Helo myvirians , want to ask from sifu-sifu here, im about to do a 100k service, myvi 1.5extreme, can advise me for which major/crucial parts that are need to change

Thanks!

yeah, me too.. anyone can advice? thanks!

Check in your service book..
Everything should be in there..
And should be done according to it..

thanks o.. will read through the book.
didnt hv time to sit down and check the service book lol..

Everything u need to knos is in there... intervals and quantity..

About the drain plug gasket, some manufacturer uses a type of crush washer there.. some just to spread the load..

So i just received this bill for myvi extreme. Is it reasonable?

Standard for SC kind of work. Of course you can get it cheaper outside. But if you want peace of mind then SC is the way to go.

This one is outside. Not Perodua service centre. But guess its reasonable then. Not kena ketuk punya harga i hope

Absorber mounting - RM60
Absorber front - RM260
Mounting set - RM350
Radiator fan - RM80

Total for parts (original) - RM750.

Workmanship - RM350 (estimate)

Total RM1100

This is what you can expect if done outside. Note the parts can be cheaper but I am showing prices for original perodua brand.

Another note is to be careful because lots of fake parts out there.

So for you price done outside, it's considered on the medium side.
