Which workshop does not paste servicing record on windscreen

[Ev0lutionz]

Rented a car few days back. Checked the servicing record of the car. 20k mileage for next servicing. Checked odometer. read 41k. Checked Engine oil. It was below half level, slightly and black like kopi. Asked the guy who passed the car to me, he said the thing was just for show only. So true?

ya.. it's for show if the car does not go for servicing at all.

He told me got service one. Just that the thing inside is for show only. Really shocked me. 41k already still never go service. I suspect the car will break down very soon.

You mean if I run a workshop and paste something on your windscreen, that somehow becomes an ORDER for you to show up for the next service?

 

Will some disaster befall you if you ignore the sticker?

 

Is your mind so weak?

 

 

Theres no need for you to comment on it do you?

I think it is not so much whether there is a sticker or not. Rather,it tells whether the rental car is well maintained or otherwise. When it comes to car, regular maintainance and safety checks cannot be compromised.

He has also been warned.

tire bald or no bald also no diffrence, both equally will puncture leh

 

bald good what so that ginnas like you will not try high speed or cornering, i think is a good strategy.

 

anyway why u huan lo the car break down, its not your car, if the rental company want to be penny wise pound foolish, its really their problem.. anyway car dont break down so easily, u never hear stories of toyotas one year never service also no problem?

yes. from what i heard from my workshop, one auntie didn't even know her car must serviced, so for more than one year the car travel more than 30k km without service, oil as black as tar, but after normal servicing, running as per normal without any problem really very very surprised

Nissan Sunny latest model. Bought when it first came out. NEVER serviced at all! The engine feels like screwing a dry sponge but still didnt break down! Not my car, my good friend's dad. Champagne gold, just sold off. To new owner- GLHF!!!

 

My own car i just DIY tire rotation. Servicing very direct. I go to workshop tell the mechanic change this change that and thats it. the rest i self-inspect.

engine oil+filter+labor= $90+$10tips. But i tell them not to put sticker. I dont need a piece of plastic/paper with ink to remind me. If i do i might as well not own a car.

[Babyt]

woah this means japanese cars good can tahan until so long?

 

 

[Amortifiedpenguin]

well, i guess so. its nissan, they used to build tanks. but i wouldnt risk it.

 

and btw the driver side tire is leaking also. heh. that car seriously damn chui. back langa carpark side lorry langa. license plate hanging halfway. cos he working with heavy veh parts, need to carry alot of bull so he doesnt care much about the car. drove the car before, if you dont floor the pedal the car cannot change gear properly.
