I have few question to ask hope you guys can let me know.
I will going for a 20,000 car service thsi weekend at the Perodua SC in PJ.
Below is the online list that i should change as given in their website.
It is the 20,000km consider a major service. I do not want Perodua to change the parts that is not ready to change.
1) What parts must change?
2) Spark Plug can change at 30,000km instead of 20,000km?
3) Thought to doing Alighment and balance at other shops but not in Perdodua SC.
Alza ( AT - 2014 ) : 20,000km Automatic Transmission
Brake Fluid 0.5L 2 20.00
Element S/A Oil Filter 1 12.20
Element Sub-Assy, Air Cleaner Filter 1 35.80
Gasket 1 3.80
PGO Semi Syn 5W-30 SM (4L) 1 91.00
Spark Plug (D55D) 4 49.20
*Tyre Alignment, Balancing & Rotation 49.00
Labour Charges - 80.00
GST ( 6% ) - 20.46
Total - 361.46
I find is quite expensive for the 4th service.
OR go to other car service center to do the service.
Hope you all can give me some advise.
1)i would replace ATF @20k km if the car operate under severe condition most of the time, for example high speed, idle a lot or short distance.
2)replace the standard spark plug at every 20k km. You don't want to stress the ignition coil which are much more expensive. Ask them to return the old spark plug and you should see the electrode started to wear.
3)tyre service cost at Tyre shop cost around Rm35 to rm50. The cost to service in perodua SC seems reasonable where if you service outside chances are you might suffer from the infamous camber con job. Besides that, you get to let them inspect your suspension for leaking. Anyway, Tyre service is not necessary unless you can't avoid tyre rotation.
For me, the service cost is reasonable.
