Yup. So better to invest in a jack and learn to change it yourself from YouTube.

So true!

All these while I thought these oil/fluid changes would be difficult. After I changed it once, I was hooked

I bought some tools and have been doing these changes on my own for my car (and family, lol)

Oddly, transmission fluid changes are much more easier than engine oil, but more expensive. For engine oil change, its a bit messy as you’ll need to change filter, quite messy. For transmission, its just a bolt, relatively clean procedure

Plus, knowing u’ve done it correctly bring satisfaction

the main important point is not paying rm20-30 for labour but to clear the greasy oil into proper containment area...

If simply throw the oil will bring pollution to environment.. at least those shop will sent back to factory for re-processing.

I give my used up oil to workshop in my taman, who is also my neighbour

But good point, if u dispose in tong sampah, better pay and do at workshop. DIY is not that common in M’sia
