Workshops that uses the car conveyor lift normally charges around RM30 - 35 for labour to change engine oil / gear oil.
The more traditional workshop which uses jack stand will charge around RM20 for the same job.
By the way, Honda City requires only 3 litre of ATF DW1. If they filled in 4 litre, confirm its overfilled and may damage your gearbox in the long run.
Normally, 3 bottles of ATF DW1 will cost around RM75. Include the labour of RM20, it is around RM95 only. I know because I am driving a Honda City TMO.

QUOTE(stevenkkh @ Dec 28 2019, 07:58 PM) Yes, I feel cheated when I see the price of the product online such as this deal and seriously, charge 30-50 bucks for labour is understandable but jacking up the product price seems unreasonable: https://www.lazada.com.my/products/honda-ci....7358fdc8KjnSt5RM215 to change gear oil as I am thinking whether such pricing difference due to the product itself and thinking why so much difference the pricing even online that I am suspicious whether due the the quality or even any fake goods. Oohh.. DTOX is always on the pricier side. Previously I had brought my own engine and transmission oil for them to replace. They charged me RM35 for labour. I guess if you buy the oil / fluid from them, they will charge you an arm and a leg for them. |

QUOTE(edisoner90 @ Dec 30 2019, 12:21 PM) 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 keep the used engine oil and accumulate a few bottles. Then when it's time to visit the local mechanic for parts replacement / repair, I will bring the used oil for disposal. The mechanic will accept them willingly as they can sell off the used oil for around RM150++ (per barrel). |
