Bringing own oil will be charged $36,so how much is the SHU outside?Is it worthwhile to buy and give them to change?No flaming pls.Genuine question.Saw at autobacs got lots of oil.THe ultraman one caught my eye.

what is the difference? 5w30, 5w40.. got other class? higher the number, the better? looking for smooth driving feeling instead of powerful. of course both come together then best...

Book my today, collecting ard 16 May. My friend and agent told me first 3 service total free, labour and parts including oil.

So bro suggest bring own oil rather then using theirs?

sorry, i think i din type clearly. i meant my bill for my 1k servicing was only $36 because i brought my own engine oil. otherwise, 1k servicing will cost around $130+ i think.

anyway, i using Redline 10w-30 which a bro in Cityzen lent me. so far so good

Ok,its possible to bring our own oil.But scared since we cannot see they servicing,maybe they might not put in the oil we gave them.

Not very sure also. Thats what he told me lor. Better double check with him when i collect my car.

Anyway, quite true also hor, you don see them servicing, how you know if they using the oil you brought?

Think that the 3 free servicing are for those who sign up for at least 7yrs loan. the SE tried to ask me to sign the 7yrs but decided to proceed w/ only the 6yrs loan to limit the pain....

Not sure if anyone noticed.My frend's City LX running on Goodyear tyres whereas mine running of Bridgestone Turanza.So which are better tyres?I'm been a biker for nearly ten years and just only started out with car.Didn't know that Bridgestone tyres (Mine in this case) are made in Thailand.
