do you service your

[Diamond Pool Finishers]

NO ,own van, just to keep the bill down, i buy all my own parts fuel filter,air filters, oil/filter, sump ring, then i let the garage change the oil/ filter for £20, then i do the rest so the total service +parts cost me £70 inc
what do you guys do then ?

 

[Ian]

Service through local mechanic every 10,000 miles, been using him since I was 17 (4 years :lol. Wouldn't know where to begin doing a service, never been one to tinker with cars, not the mechanics anyway. Service costs about £120 through him.

I get really good mates rates at a local garage so always take it in....

 

[White Room]

I do an oil change on the van for 6 month thing but a service I leave to a garage...

 

[Mike]

i'm going to do a service on my combo soon, easy enough to do just the oil and filters

New vans are run by computers...lol... leave it to the the pro's.. well i have to , to keep up the warranty..

 

[John Benton]

[radim]

asked in renault garage for service price - £ 219. got to find someone else who can do it....:incazzato:

 

[Floor-Form]

We take our vehicles to the garage for them to service. We could do it ourselves but the time spent doing this could be better spent earning £££

 

[tileunique]

what! you have to service them? i thought filling them up was servicing..that explains a few things

 

[hillhead]

Mine needs new brake discs and the garage will be fitting,lol.
I'd rather pay for a pro to do it right .

wise words Joe

 

[White Room]

I do 1 job on a vehicle and end making 3 problems..:yikes:

 

[Diamond Pool Finishers]

i'am a bit of a handyman, if i can do something to save myself a few BOB then i will, and i feel more of a Man,as i look at blokes who can't do anything as a bit useless ......lol

 

[Olz]

I do the brake pads and discs, air and pollen filters and other bits and bobs but not the fuel filter as its housing on my motor is a bit fragile.

Used to do all my own car service and repairs but that was in the days that they didnt disguise the engine as a space shuttle computer bay....... These days i sturggle to find the water and oil caps...........

 

[trevortine]

I was a mechanic before I started tiling (from age of 16 to 29) so do all my own service and repairs and also mates and family time to time!
