52.5k kms oil change

Pocong just had new heart fluid change at Ever Auto last Saturday. Typical 4.5ltr of fresh Castrol Edge 10w40 and original oil filter replacing the old. And prior to that, the mechanic did not fine any signs of leaks at all CV boot covers and rear bearings still ok. A total bill came to about RM316.75 which includes RM75 for the oil filter. This is a bit odd because either it’s so expensive in here or Alex got it confused with Pocong as Mk5 Golf GTI. Either way, I’m happy with the place and will visit again on coming 60k mileage for major timing belt replacement, perhaps bringing oil filter, plugs and G12+ coolant on my own hahaha

    ECS stuff you can it from www.ecstuning.com, they do sell wide range of brake upgrades from cheap & chearful 312mm to 6 potter Porsche but my 312mm brakes I sourced it from a friend. Drop me a mail at firdausasri@gmail.com and i'll give you his contact no.

  9. hm, a new place for servicing, interesting. how do you rate their workmanship and knowledge?

    i'm planning to replace the "hollow" swing arm bushes soon, so it's good to know a few workshops that can do the job (apart from clement's place of course)..

  10. Anas,

    Ever Auto has done quite a lot of Audis and VWs since its existence. The owner, Alex and some of his staff came from Auto Dunia who used to be Audi/VW sole dealer in Malaysia.

    Since you're going to fix he bushes, better call Alex at 016-2204384 for an appointment :)
