Mcf777 Turbocharged March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 (edited) Change oil and filter will do. Those ding ding dong dong sound, if u can bear with it, then Dont need to change. Provided it is not endangering yr lifelife Cheapest oil+ filter + labour will cost less than 80. Edited March 30, 2015 by Mcf777 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't need to service la. If it breaks down then just get it towed and scraped slightly earlier. On 3/30/2015 at 1:08 AM, Kenomi said: That must be the reason why i saw so many cars on fire nowadays!

Do you really believe that those cars catch fire because they miss one scheduled servicing instead of some other more insidious fault? I think it is way more likely that they had some illegal(or even non-illegal) modifications done and it was not up to standard. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enye Hypersonic March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 depends on the mileage you are going to cover in the next six months. If it's going to to less than 10k, just top up the oil level if it is low. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knoobie Supercharged March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 my regular servicing is almost once every 2.5 months.. if you don't cover 10,000 km in that 6 months, might as well scrap early.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
13177 Hypersonic March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 6 months still have sometime away, esp if you still drive the car regularly everyday, still need to service the car if it is due now. Just change engine oil will do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
