Hi All,

Today 14th May, I went to Caltex Station (at Upper Thomson Rd) and my Honda Stream oil change labour was $15. (it's the one where Shell->Esso->Caltex stations side by side)(opp is Sembawang Hill Food Centre).....Further up would be the famous roti prata shops.

 

I brought my own engine oil and filter.

It's has 2-3 guys (all in dark blue T-shirts).

They said "No more $10 and some places charging $20 to $25, so $15 is quite fair".

I went for it as I didn't want to travel (evry 10km costs me >$2) so no savings to drive to and fro.

 

So maybe all forumers reading this can help generate a list of workshops if they have lobang that do it for $10 (all locations of S'pore since not everyone will drive to JB).

I got one with a nipple as its less messy.

 

Attached one end of the tube to the valve and the other end to the waste container, no splashing.

Hawk Tayar operates 7 days a week.

Good for general servicing, including balancing.

Ideally bring your own parts.

Can just leave car with workshop and go shopping across the street.

 

 

Is it safe to leave your car in JB workshop, and go shopping ?
